[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A friend of mine is an OB in Florida, she has been pulled u to working ICU shifts because there are so many pregnant patients who are getting really sick with Covid. Her biggest concern is that a lot of the drugs they need to use to keep pregnant women alive are NOT tested in pregnancy and they have no idea what the effects will be on the baby. Those drugs are a much much much bigger risk to the u born child than a very safe and effective vaccine. Vaccines aren’t like drugs - you get one or two tiny doses and all traces are gone within two weeks, usually much much less. IV drugs administered by the bagful for days and weeks and months…yikes. The risks are definitely not equal.

OP here thank you for sharing …I hadn’t thought of this and if I put weird drugs size by side and vaccine the vaccine is of course safer since it WAS tested more on pregnant women. Thanks again for this point I met with my OB and I am at this time going to get vaccinated with my first dose before my 32 week ultrasound (it’s closer to end of pregnancy and it’s the first dose and I’ll go from there). There has only been 2 pregnant women seriously ill with Covid at my hospital since July (I mean it about me being in a rural area). [/quote]
