WARTABANJAR.COM – Babies are always adorable and make those who see them want to kiss, especially adults and children.
Especially at family gatherings, babies become targets for being touched, held and of course kissed.
Even though it seems simple, it turns out that kissing babies can harm their health.
This is because babies’ thin skin and weak immune systems make them more sensitive to touch, including kisses.
Therefore, let’s find out what the dangers of kissing a baby are as reported by Halodoc.
The following diseases can occur due to careless kissing of a baby:
1. RSV Virus Infection
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a virus that infects the lungs or respiratory tract.
This virus is very contagious and generally attacks children or babies, making it difficult for them to breathe.
In older children, the symptoms can be mild and similar to the common cold, but in babies, this condition can be serious and potentially fatal.
RSV can cause severe breathing problems and can affect a baby’s heart and brain, especially premature babies who tend to have weak immune systems.
2. Herpes Simplex Tipe 1
Also known as cold sores or oral herpes, this disease is perhaps the most dangerous disease that occurs in babies, as a result of being kissed by another person.
This disease occurs because the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV 1), can be transmitted through kissing, even just a kiss on the hand.
