More than two years have now elapsed since the COVID-19 vaccination was first authorized and administered worldwide. Over time, evidence on vaccines has been continuously reviewed by regulatory bodies leading to progressive inclusion of even more susceptible groups (i.e., infants, pregnant breastfeeding women). The initial lack consensus, in concert with absence any preliminary data about mRNA vaccine transfer persistence breast milk (BM), determined hesitancy low compliance among mothers. In this issue eBioMedicine, Hanna colleagues attempted put final word biodistribution, fragmentation biological activity BM.1Hanna N. Manzano de Mejia C.
