- Abstract
The COVID-19 virus, which started in China at the end of 2019 caused a pandemic. The pandemic process has caused concern in nursing mothers and expectant mothers. However, although the protective role of the rich content of breast milk against viral infections is known, there is no study that proves the transmission of COVID-19 virus from breast milk. In addition to these, various health authorities such as the World Health Organization, United Nations Children's Fund, Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine, American Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, Royal Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, recommend direct breastfeeding by taking hygiene measures. The need to maintain lactation has increased during the COVID-19 process. Women's health nurses, who have an important role in the breastfeeding process, should take the necessary precautions to protect the mother and her baby from COVID-19 infection, provide isolation and support breastfeeding, which is the important provider of the bond between mother and baby, as much as possible.
