COVID vaccine during pregnancy still helps protect newborns, CDC finds
CBSN
Getting a shot of the COVID-19 vaccine during pregnancy works to pass on protection against the virus to newborns during their most vulnerable early months of life, a new study published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported.
Maternal vaccination was 54% effective against COVID-19 hospitalization in infants younger than 3 months old over the past season.
The findings from the CDC-backed Overcoming COVID-19 Network were published Thursday in the agency's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. They drew from data on hospitalizations from 26 pediatric hospitals around the country through May 2023.
