KUALA LUMPUR: Pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers, who have fears that they are at high risk of Covid-19 infection are probably considering vaccination as a prevention measure. However, they may be confused as many believe these women are not allowed to take the vaccine shots as its side effects could be harmful not only to the mothers, but also on the foetus and breastfed infant. In actual fact, Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said, for now, this group has not been recommended to take the vaccine shots because of lack of sufficient data (on side effects).
