Congratulations Mary on your very well earned retirement. ❤️
Today our wonderful colleague Mary Stronach retires after a stellar 50 years service in the NHS. Mary started work at Airedale in 1970 she was 15 as a ward hostess serving tea and coffee & then became a midwife on our Labour ward. What an achievement, we'll all miss you Mary!

This is anything but a typical year and we all want to protect ourselves and those close to us. Flu can be deadly and is easily spread. Ask your GP or pharmacist if you’re eligible. More information here: https://t.co/SOnSpCBzTu

If you have an appointment, or are concerned about the health of you or your baby, it's important that we see you. Just speak to your midwife or maternity team. The NHS is here to see you, safely. #HelpUsHelpYou

Thanks for the great advice Charlotte! 💉
However fit and healthy you might feel, if you are pregnant you need the flu vaccine. It's the safest way to protect you and your baby against the flu virus. Charlotte, a midwife at @AiredaleNHSFT explains:

There is no evidence showing that coronavirus can be carried or passed on in breastmilk. The well-recognised benefits of breastfeeding and the protection it offers to babies outweigh any potential risks of the transmission of covid-19 through breastmilk.

Infected women can stay with and breastfeed their babies if safety measures are taken, a study says.
