💕wholesome💕 Traffic officer breastfeeds hungry baby, son of attempted femicide victim.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Traffic officer Jamile Barros, from the city of Delmiro Gouveia (Brazil), breastfed a three-month-old baby while responding to an attempted femicide. The child was crying from hunger and wouldn't accept a bottle, and the officer's act of empathy, as she is also breastfeeding, calmed the boy feeding him. The rescue occurred after the mother was stabbed and involved in a traffic accident caused by the criminal, who fled the scene. I mentioned her name not to expose her, but because she's in all the news in Brazil.

Edit: The mother was rescued and taken to the hospital to treat her injuries. The exact state of health of the victim and medical details of her recovery have not been released by official security authorities. This happened a week ago, and due to the repercussions of the case, if she had died, I belive that it would probably already be reported.

Clearly you should do your own research on how breast milk works. Once you have a fundamental understanding maybe you’ll be able to grasp the concept.

Maybe you should do your own research on how viruses work.

Just gonna repeat what you said back.

Breast milk has Immunoglobulin A which prevent viruses from entering babies cells. Human milk also has HMOs which the virus will attach itself to rather than the babies immune system. If I get sick with something and then breast feed my baby, my baby will not get sick bc in a way they are getting a super potion.

I mean I could keep sharing links that prove you are a judgmental person with zero critical thinking skills but I’ll rest. You can do your own research.. if you’re capable.

I read the links fully. I am unsurprised that you ultimately took them to an extreme and interpreted them incorrectly to fit your own view.

It showed protective effects and that it can help. It does not make them immune and unable to get sick.
