WEDNESDAY, April 12, 2023 (HealthDay News) — Despite the proven safety and effectiveness of COVID and flu vaccines during pregnancy, many young women are still doubtful, a new survey shows.
Compared with older women and adult men, the poll found higher percentages of women ages 18 to 49 doubting that vaccination against these viruses during pregnancy is safe.
The survey of 1,600 U.S. adults was conducted in January. Results were reported April 10 in the Annenberg Public Policy Center’s second Annenberg Science and Public Health Knowledge Monitor.
