There is no absolute contraindications on taking vaccine for a lactating women (on breastfeeding)
But eventually manufacturers says while on a trail of a vaccine there was not enough volunteers who were pregnant or lactating women.. so they were not able to do a survey on this group of people (preg. And lactating women) and have lack of data.
