ICU admissions drop to zero in pregnant woman who have had 3 doses of the covid vaccine. Most women who become seriously unwell in pregnancy from covid have not been vaccinated. An effective safe vaccination in pregnancy.
Another lovely infographic from the @BMJMedicine team illustrating the @NPEU_UKOSS data on omicron SARS-CoV-2 and pregnancy and the impact of vaccination on reducing disease severity. Full paper here bmjmedicine.bmj.com/content/…
