“#Anti-vax parents demand surrogates avoid the COVID vaccine<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

These parents don\u2019t want their baby vaccinated \u2014 so they\u2019re asking their surrogate not to get the coronavirus vaccine.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As the COVID-19 vaccine becomes more widely available in the US, surrogacy agencies have been inundated with parents specifically requesting unvaccinated women to carry their babies, Vice reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In one extreme case, according to the report, a woman even asked if it was within her rights to have her surrogate abort the baby should the surrogate choose to get vaccinated against the woman\u2019s will.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe intended mother was going so far as to ask me if the surrogate actually got the vaccine, could she then turn around and request a termination of the pregnancy,\u201d Worldwide Surrogacy founder Victoria Ferrara told Vice of a surrogate who was eligible for the vaccine as a health care worker, but turned it down under pressure from the baby\u2019s mother. \u201cIt just really exemplified, for me, that severe level of anxiety that some people have.\u201d<\/p>\n

Many surrogates say getting the shot \u2014 which has been administered to over 95.7 million<\/a> Americans and counting \u2014 would make them feel like a \u201cguinea pig,\u201d Ashley Mareko, program director for California-based agency Surrogate First, told Vice.<\/p>\n

Some intended parents are even willing to pay for surrogates to miss work in the name of not getting the vaccine. \u201cWe had intended parents who did not want her [the surrogate] to have the vaccination, were worried about COVID, and they actually paid for her lost wages to not work the last three months,\u201d said Mareko. <\/p>\n

The World Health Organization and CDC both promote pregnant women getting vaccinated, but there remains widespread anti-vaccine sentiment stemming significantly from conspiracy theories, a mistrust of the government and online misinformation, in the surrogacy world and beyond. <\/p>\n

Jordan McCutcheon, a 28-year-old surrogate and dental assistant, told Vice she signed a contract allowing her baby\u2019s parents to make her medical choices, including the decision for her to not get the coronavirus vaccine.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is their baby, so if that\u2019s how they want to protect their baby, then as a parent they should be able to make that decision,\u201d said the Ohio resident, who hasn\u2019t been able to taste or smell since getting COVID in November while she was travel<\/a>ing to Seattle to have an embryo implanted in her uterus. <\/p>\n

The parents whose baby McCutcheon is carrying are more worried about her being exposed to X-rays than COVID, she told Vice.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve had it and I\u2019m fine,\u201d she said.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
