"Fortunately, vaccination mitigates many of these risks. A study published in the February 11 issue of the Lancet found that vaccinated pregnant women were are at lower risk of severe COVID, ICU admission and death than unvaccinated pregnant women. And if they received a booster shot, the risk was even lower."
“Because pregnant women are generally young and fit and healthy, they don’t consider themselves to be at a high risk,” says the Lancet study’s senior author Aris Papageorghiou, a professor of fetal medicine and director of research at the Oxford Maternal & Perinatal Health Institute. “But the truth of the matter is that when you are pregnant, you are at higher risk from COVID infection.”
