Kid not to be separated from mother even if mother is covid positive as per recommendations. No need to test the kid as we are not separating kid from mother. Keep kid away from elder persons in the house. Keep mother and kid in one room. You have to keep away from mother and kid till her report comes

You can continue breastfeed as long it’s comfortable. You need to take precautions follow SMS- social distancing, mask and sanitisation
