This case report describes an actively breastfeeding patient with COVID-19 infection with detectable viral RNA in human milk. The first sampling of human milk occurred five days following maternal symptom onset with no episodes of breastfeeding in those five days prior to collection of the sample. An additional six samples of human milk were collected with one further sample demonstrating detectable SARS-COV-2 RNA (Figure 1 ). These samples continued to have detectable RNA sixty-six days following infant symptom onset (Figure 1 ). To our knowledge, this is the first case of detectable SARS-CoV-2 RNA from human milk in a patient with COVID-19. ./cache/cord-294718-n3gx862b.txt ./txt/cord-294718-n3gx862b.txt
