Can you breastfeed if you have influenza A?

Breastfeeding is not recommended if you have Influenza A. Although Influenza A is a respiratory infection and breastfeeding does not affect it, it can be easily transmitted through breathing during breastfeeding contact. Influenza A virus is a common influenza virus that is the causative agent of influenza A. It mutates easily and can be transmitted through the respiratory system. When breastfeeding, there is a high risk of respiratory transmission to the baby due to the close proximity of the baby. Therefore, breastfeeding is not recommended for patients with influenza A to avoid transmission of the virus to the baby. After diagnosis of influenza A, keep the room ventilated, drink plenty of water, moderate activities, timely consultation and treatment under the guidance of the doctor. Warm reminder: If you feel unwell, you should seek medical treatment in time, and not blindly use medication on your own.
