We are working on a comment for this product.

Se transmite desde animales (roedores) a humanos⁽^Jamieson²⁰⁰⁵⁾y entre humanos por contacto directo (lesiones de la piel, respiración, saliva, fómites y sexual) y a través de la placenta. Se desconoce si el virus se excreta en la leche materna. La enfermedad es contagiosa mientras hay síntomas (dos a cuatro semanas).^{(WHO/OMS 2022)}

Dado el modo de contagio (saliva, respiración, piel), si la madre está infectada y el lactante no, es conveniente aislar al lactante y no amamantar. Extraer leche y desecharla.⁽^{RCPCH 2022, Khalil 2022, RCOG 2022)}

La situación socio-económica y sanitaria debe tenerse en cuenta para decidir aislar a madre y bebé y no amamantar, ya que, en los países de ingresos bajos y medianos, los beneficios de la lactancia materna pueden superar el riesgo de infección neonatal por viruela del simio.^{(Khalil 2022)}

Si madre y lactante están infectados (lo que debe ser frecuente, ya que las lesiones cutáneas típicas aparecen después de la fiebre) se debe valorar la conveniencia de que sigan juntos y mantener lactancia materna⁽^{RCPCH 2022)}, que podría aportar defensas al lactante. Todo ello depende del estado clínico de madre y lactante.

Las vacunas existentes son las de la viruela, son de virus vivos y están contraindicadas en menores de un año, embarazadas y personas inmunocomprometidas o con dermatitis atópica.^{(Rizk 2022).}

Los antivirales Tecovirimat o Brincidofovir y la gammaglobulina humana antivariólica están indicados solo en casos graves.^{(Rizk 2022, CDC 2022)}

Suggestions made at e-lactancia are done by APILAM team of health professionals, and are based on updated scientific publications. It is not intended to replace the relationship you have with your doctor but to compound it. The pharmaceutical industry contraindicates breastfeeding, mistakenly and without scientific reasons, in most of the drug data sheets.

Your contribution is essential for this service to continue to exist. We need the generosity of people like you who believe in the benefits of breastfeeding.

Thank you for helping to protect and promote breastfeeding.

José María Paricio, founder of e-lactancia.
