There are many questions among pregnant women about the usefulness and possible risks of vaccination, notes gynecologist Hans Duvekot, chairman of the Covid-19 and Pregnancy working group. According to Dr. Duvekot, new developments show how important it is that you get yourself vaccinated, he says in an interview. Even if you are pregnant. “There are no demonstrable figures that vaccinating pregnant women is not safe. On the other hand, we can provide enough evidence that it is safe. By vaccinating yourself as a pregnant woman, you not only protect yourself, but also your unborn child.”
