Should pregnant people get the Covid-19 vaccine? Quartz 12/18/2020 © Provided by Quartz pregnant woman receives vaccine

In the past few months, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) noted that pregnancy is a risk factor for Covid-19, making pregnant people who are infected more likely than the average person to have severe forms of the disease and to die from it. The infection doesn’t seem to affect the pregnancy itself, only the mother.

For months, surveys showed widespread skepticism about the vaccine after the Trump administrationâs push to get it out before the November election. Public-health authorities say peopleâs concerns have eased since then, but this weekâs launch of vaccinations made it clear that some health-care workers and first responders remain unwilling to get the shot.
