Baby dies eight days from a kiss.

Newborns are very delicate, have very low immune protection, and are prone to take viruses lightly. So in the first few months of life, you should not touch newborns if you are sick, do not kiss them, or touch them with dirty hands. In fact, their delicate organisms can absorb all kinds of bacteria or viruses and make them very dangerous. Unfortunately, we often hear stories about babies dying of a kiss. The painful and sad story comes from an American mother who lost her daughter only eight days because of a kiss.

Mother said that she had not planned the pregnancy but that she had just discovered that she had a child - the first one - was very happy. The pregnancy was difficult, the mother had an early birth.

I was very scared, but I was also excited about meeting him. I screamed when I saw her and heard her voice. How much love I had when I took it in my arms. It weighed 3.6kg and was beautiful”.

The mother said that the child, in the early days of his life, was often held by relatives and friends, but then the unthinkable happened.

Before he got sick, I didn't care if someone kept him, but I didn't want everyone to kiss him. Honestly, as a new mother I was worried about everything, but I didn't imagine a child could get herpes”

The baby, the day after her birth, began to feel bad.

After 36 hours of birth, she began experiencing symptoms that included energy shortages, appetite, and low blood sugar. About the end of the second day, she began to feel really bad and had to be transported to another hospital. The girl started growing fluids in her lungs. The brain and lungs were so swollen that the veins in the chest were visible.

She had taken herpes from someone who had kissed her, but in newborns this disease becomes fatal.

Almost 14,000 children die each year because of this virus. /Perneases
