Will babies be easily infected with colds

Patient's question:

Is it easy to get infected when babies and people with colds are in the same room? First question supplement: If someone in the family has a cold, what measures should be taken?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, newborn babies usually have a certain amount of maternal immunity in their bodies, and they are generally not easily infected before the age of 4-6 months. However, if a family member has a cold, it is best not to get too close to the baby, especially not to cough or speak loudly towards the baby.
It is recommended that family members with a cold maintain a certain distance from the baby, but there is no need to deliberately disinfect things. Generally, 4-6 month-old infants have a certain amount of maternal immunity at birth. Wishing you and your baby good health!
