“#Pregnant women should avoid Moderna COVID-19 vaccine: WHO<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

The World Health Organization is putting a halt on the coronavirus vaccine by Moderna for pregnant women due to a lack of data.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile pregnancy puts women at a higher risk of severe COVID-19, the use of this vaccine in pregnant women is currently not recommended, unless they are at risk of high exposure,\u201d the official WHO status report<\/a> released Tuesday reads. <\/p>\n

Experts now advise people who are pregnant to avoid receiving the Moderna vaccine unless they are health-care workers in a facility treating coronavirus patients, or if they have a medical condition that would put them at a higher risk of COVID-19 fatality.<\/p>\n

However, in a virtual briefing held by the WHO\u2019s Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization, or SAGE, from their headquarters in Geneva, their director of immunization, Kate O\u2019Brien, stressed their overall confidence in the therapy. <\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no reason to think there could be a problem in pregnancy, we are just acknowledging the data is not there at the moment,\u201d O\u2019Brien said, according to a Reuters<\/a> report. <\/p>\n

Officially, health experts are also asking clinics to plan a second dose of the Moderna vaccine within 28 days of the first, though the gap in-between shots may ultimately be extended up to 42 days. <\/p>\n

Currently, they recommend the vaccine \u201cshould be given in doses of 100 micrograms or 0.5 ml with an interval of 28 days,\u201d said Alejandro Cravioto, a WHO panel chair, from Mexico.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis interval might be moved to 42 days but the evidence we have does not go beyond that time,\u201d said Cravioto.<\/p>\n

The WHO said they would continue working closely with Moderna to establish safety regarding their vaccine on pregnant people. <\/p>\n

Studies have shown that Moderna\u2019s vaccine has demonstrated 92% efficacy in staving off COVID-19 by two weeks after the first dose, and it is believed to be effective against more recent SARS-CoV-2 variants, according to WHO.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
