    Studysummary This study highlights that the ACIP strongly recommends COVID-19 vaccination and booster doses for pregnant women, those breastfeeding, or trying to conceive, due to the safety of non-live vaccines in these groups and the protection they also offer to infants. Our plain-language summary of this paper — not a Tressless recommendation.
    The document emphasizes the importance of COVID-19 vaccination for pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as those trying to conceive, due to their classification as a 'clinical risk' group. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends vaccination for everyone over six months, including infants born to vaccinated mothers. Vaccines, including COVID-19 vaccines, are considered safe during pregnancy as they are not "live" vaccines and can protect both mothers and their children from infection. Pregnant women are urged to receive their COVID-19 vaccination and booster doses promptly.
