Guest of the program “Onet Rano.” was Aleksandra Szprucińska. The doctor is currently pregnant but has decided to get vaccinated for COVID-19. – I wasn’t scared. I found that waiting is pointless – she said.
Vaccinations against COVID-19 in pregnant women
The doctor says that initially she wanted to wait for the baby to be born and the puerperium ended. – When American and British gynecologists issued recommendations that pregnant women from risk groups should get vaccinated, I found that waiting a few months was pointless.
Szprucińska and her husband are doctors. – We’re both working. There is a high risk that we will contract the coronavirus – she said in the program. The doctor believes that in the case of medics, the risk of not vaccinating is much higher, so she did not delay taking the preparation.
Currently, it is not recommended to vaccinate pregnant women as the COVID-19 vaccine has not been tested in this group of patients.
– If we compare the benefits of vaccination to possible risks, vaccination of pregnant women against SARS-CoV-2 seems to be a reasonable procedure. However, I agree with the recommendations of the British government, which currently does not recommend routine immunization of pregnant women. However, it recommends vaccinations to those pregnant women who are particularly vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection or have risk factors for the severe course of COVID-19, said gynecologist and obstetrician Dr. Jacek Tulimowski recently in an interview with PAP.
On Wednesday, January 27, the magazine “Live better. How to take care of yourself and your loved ones today ”and a special supplement on vaccinations against COVID-19 prepared by Medonet.
