Dr. Soumya Swaminathan

WHO’s Chief Scientist

Dr. Soumya Swaminathan is famous for saying:

“There is no risk at all because all the vaccines that are being used presently, none of them have the live virus in it. And so there’s no risk of transmission through the breast milk. In fact, the antibodies that the mother has can go through the breast milk to the baby and may only serve maybe to protect the baby a little bit. But there’s absolutely no harm. It’s very safe.”
