Initially, when vaccines were deployed with Messenger RNA (mRNA) encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), researchers thought it remained near the injection site and quickly degraded.
However, recent reports published by well-known clinical journals suggest that the mRNA/LNPs can enter the bloodstream, accumulate in tissues, and may be passed to infants in expressed breast milk (EBM).
To better understand how this occurrence may impact infants, a leading journal published a study supported by the Department of Pediatrics, NYU-Grossman Long Island School of Medicine.
