Readit NewsApart from the nutrients from breastfeeding, I recall that it is part of an immune system feedback loop. If the child is fighting off something, it is transferred to the nipple during breastfeeding. The mother's immune system develops a response and provides help to the child in the breast milk next feeding.
The main factor at play here is maternal passive immunity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_immunity#Maternal_pass...
As far as I know, there's no (direct, retrograde) transfer of pathogens from the child to the mother through the breast. But if the child has an infection, there is often a higher chance for the mother to get ill as well (due to close body contact, aerosol particles, etc.) and to develop a "mature immune response", which could lead to a (delayed) positive secondary effect on the child through passive immunity.

Slightly off-topic: I know the Substack says 2024, but I remembered reading this very same post before. Turns out it's from 2017 [0].

CVE is an invite only system, applied to just a few projects. See e.g. https://cve.mitre.org/cve/data_sources_product_coverage.html. Generally you need to know someone to get such an id.
If you have a bug in some github project you cannot request a CVE for that. If a CVE is reported you'd usually include that in the commit. But that's not the same as every security bug should have a CVE. Often way easier to just fix bugs instead of figuring out if it is a security bug (=method Linus uses).
The CVE-HOWTO by RedHat is a good resource to find out about the process:
