Abstract

Abstract : (Abstracted from N Engl J Med 2022;387:109–119) COVID-19 during pregnancy is associated with a greater risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes and neonatal complications. Studies have shown that mRNA vaccines are highly effective in preventing severe COVID-19 during pregnancy, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends vaccination, including boosters, for people who are pregnant or plan to be pregnant.
