Covid Vaccination in 9th month
Hi Doctor, My wife is currently in 9th month pregnancy and EDD is in next 2-3 weeks.
The Covid vaccination drive for pregnant woman is going on currently and our ANM is insisting us to take covid vaccination.
Please advise if she can take vaccine (1st dose) at this point or we can wait until delivery?
Thanks
