Now, pregnant women should go to get the new crown vaccination. The WHO immunization strategy advisory expert group released the latest vaccination roadmap. This version of the recommendation indicates that pregnant women are at increased risk of serious infections from the new crown. Experts recommend that pregnant women be vaccinated. At the same time, some short-term studies have shown that breastfeeding mothers can continue to breastfeed their children after being vaccinated.
The updated roadmap explains how to best respond to public health events in countries with limited
supply and the latest research evidence of the new crown vaccine. And the continued supply constraints faced by the New Coronary Pneumonia Vaccine Implementation Plan (COVAX). Specific recommendations include expanding the new crown vaccination is: the population included in the second phase of the priority roadmap, namely pregnant women and children, update clinical trial studies for breastfeeding women.
Significance of line update
The update said that there is evidence that pregnant women face an increased risk of severe infection of the new crown. Infection of the new coronavirus during pregnancy can also increase the risk of premature birth and neonatal intensive care.
In addition, some short-term studies have shown that breastfeeding mothers have no risk of vaccinating their babies. WHO does not recommend stopping breastfeeding due to vaccination.
As of July 16, the WHO Immunization Strategy Advisory Group reviewed Pfizer’s vaccination data for children over 12 years of age. Current research shows that children are generally less likely to become seriously ill and die after infection, but children with underlying diseases are at higher risk of serious illness. WHO recommends that when the community transmission rate is high or there are group cases, children and adolescents with basic health conditions should be included in the second stage of vaccine promotion.
