Addressing COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy in Pregnancy

In this session, participants learned about recent studies supporting the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccination in pregnancy. Speakers identified common concerns patients cite when hesitant to receive the COVID-19 vaccine in pregnancy, and strategies for talking to patients, friends and family to encourage vaccination while pregnant. Participants also heard personal stories from two nurses who chose to get vaccinated while pregnant, and perspectives from an OBGYN about her experience in caring for pregnant patients throughout the pandemic. This webinar is a part of our Nurse-Led Forum for Vaccine Confidence series.
