Abstract

Maternal vaccines during pregnancy offer crucial protection against infections for both the pregnant person and their newborn. Vaccines against influenza, pertussis, coronavirus disease 2019, and respiratory syncytial virus are routinely recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to safeguard pregnant women and their infants from potentially severe complications. Administering these vaccines during pregnancy helps transfer protective antibodies from the mother to the baby, enhancing immunity during the vulnerable early months of life. Extensive research supports the safety and efficacy of maternal vaccines, with numerous studies demonstrating their protective benefits for both pregnant people and newborns.
