[quote=Anonymous][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.

This is a great point. Has the regeneron drug been tested or the other antibody drug that is on the market (forget the name of the manufacturer?). My guess is that they were not. [/quote]

They have an EUA just like the vaccines. But the vaccines have been used in literally hundreds of millions of people and so many pregnant women. While the drugs have not. I would absolutely be more comfortable getting the vaccine. [/quote]
