💋👄 “Me voy a comer a BESOS al bebé” en esta época de fiestas está la orden del día. 🆘Razones por las cuales es mejor EVITAR que besen a los bebés (aunque te etiqueten de exagerado 😅).

El sistema inmunológico de los niños, por ejemplo en los recién nacidos, puede ser más débil y enfermarlos gravemente. Además el contacto con una persona enferma es una apuesta casi segura a qué un bebé se puede contagiar, ya que ellos no han estado expuesto a casi ninguna enfermedad y al entrar en contacto con ella fácilmente la adquieren.

Algunas enfermedades que se pueden transmitir por besos:
✔️Mononucleosis infecciosa
✔️Citomegalovirus
✔️Herpes
✔️Algunas enfermedades de transmisión sexual
✔️Caries

NO es exagerar, es prevenir, evitémoslo.
