COVID-19: maternal vaccination (vs natural infection) tied to more durable anti-spike IgG titers in infants

Miriam Davis, PhD | Clinical Summary | 17 February 2022

Findings provide further impetus for pregnant women to get vaccinated.

Takeaway

COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy (vs natural SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy) is tied to more durable anti-spike IgG titers in infants.

Why this matters

COVID-19 vaccinations are not being planned for infants younger than 6 months.
Findings reported here provide further impetus for pregnant women to become vaccinated.
