Express News Service BENGALURU: While the Union Health Ministry has given its nod for pregnant women to get vaccinated against Covid-19, experts have pointed out that they should come forward and get themselves vaccinated before the third wave sets in. This comes at a time when the second wave has been harsh on pregnant women with many showing serious symptoms, including breathlessness. According to experts, exclusive drives should be arranged for pregnant women and gynaecologists should be present at the site to make the inoculation hassle-free and risk-free. Dr Suhasini Inamdar, Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, Motherhoood Hospital, Bengaluru, said, “Pregnant women should be vaccinated on priority as the second wave was harsh on them. Vaccination for pregnant women has already commenced and, if they start taking the vaccine right away, then we may be able to cover the entire population of pregnant women before the onset of the third wave.”
