Deskripsi

Pregnant individuals are at higher risk of SARS-CoV-2-related morbidity and mortality, yet more studies are needed to evaluate safety and efficacy of vaccination during pregnancy, and also the level of protection provided to the newborn. Here, the authors evaluate transplacental transfer of mRNA vaccine products and functional SARS-CoV-2 antibodies during pregnancy and early infancy.
