BURNLEY, ENGLAND - MAY 15: Neonatal Nurse Kirsty Hartley cares for premature baby Theo Anderson in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at the Lancashire Women and Newborn Centre at Burnley General Hospital in East Lancashire, during the current coronavirus disease (COVID-19) epidemic, on May 15, 2020 in Burnley, England.
COVID-19 antibodies can be passed into the unborn baby s placenta if the mother caught the coronavirus while pregnant, Philadelphia-based researchers found. These findings are a good sign for concerned parents. However, parents are unable to assert with certainty that the infected mother s newborn will be safe from COVID-19 as the science is still evolving, researchers say.
This is to allow for the additional space required to deliver the Covid-19 vaccination programme. Following the introduction of the national vaccination programme, the extra space, at Rossendale Birth Centre, will ensure more residents in Rossendale who are prioritised as part of the national programme can be vaccinated quicker. East Lancashire CCG said the situation will be reviewed every two weeks to address any concerns and make any necessary changes to support both the vaccination programme and maternity services. Dr Abdul Mannan, Clinical Director of Rossendale Primary Care Network, said: “In the same way that colleagues in other areas across the country have been instructed to do, we were required to identify a hub to vaccinate the residents of Rossendale in line with national guidance for the delivery of the Covid-19 vaccination.

Many governments have taken action to support women s lives and jobs during the pandemic, but more still needs to be done, according to analysts.
Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, undersecretary-general of the UN and executive director of UN Women, said that as COVID-19 has ravaged the global economy and severely affected people s lives, governments have taken unprecedented measures. These include strengthening access to health care, rolling out cash transfers, and providing paid sick leave and unemployment benefits.
