Great question. So far there is little data because pregnancy was an exclusion for the main studies. But if you are pregnant, the vaccine is still recommended.

Also, women will still have become pregnant during these studies – and certainly afterwards. These data will all be collected.

When these data are available they will be widely publicised.

Other studies are looking at vaccine responses during pregnancy.

This is one of more than 65 questions about COVID vaccines. It was produced by and for people living with HIV.
