Pregnant, nursing women can receive COVID-19 vaccine

ANGOLA —If you’re pregnant or nursing, yes, you can get a COVID-19 vaccination. One of the questions that has surrounded the vaccines under emergency use authorization by the Food and Drug Administration is about fertility and if the vaccine can cause infertility in vaccine recipients. And the answer is no, so say the American College of OB/GYN, the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control. In agreement with each of these societies is Dr. Todd Rumsey of Cameron OB/GYN, Angola. “If the vaccine is offered, you should receive it,” said Rumsey. “There have been zero ties to infertility and the vaccine.”
