Do RSV Vaccines Increase the Risk of Preterm Birth?

Some people believe RSV vaccines increase preterm birth risk. An unadjuvanted GSK maternal RSV vaccine trial was stopped due to more preterm births in the vaccine group. In clinical trials, more preterm births were found in those who got Abrysvo, but not at statistically significant levels. Getting the vaccine later, at 32-36 weeks, can provide protection without any risk of extreme prematurity. Additionally, post-marketing safety studies will be conducted to assess the risk of preterm births. Getting the vaccine during pregnancy can ensure the baby’s protection, especially considering Beyfortus shortages. It’s essential to weigh the benefits and risks before deciding on the timing of the vaccine.

Some individuals use the idea that seniors can get up to nine COVID vaccine shots to generate fear about vaccine efficacy. The CDC advocates an additional updated 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccine dose for seniors due to increased risk. However, widespread misinformation disregards the safety of the recommended doses. Multiple studies demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of COVID vaccines, underscoring their vital role in protecting against severe illness and new variants.
