Not only is it safe, but is important to get! You want to do what you can to try to prevent yourself from getting COVID-19, especially during pregnancy. There can be harm to your unborn baby if you contract COVID, so please get vaccinated!

You should get Covid and Flu vaccine to protect yourself and your baby. You may also get other vaccines, e.g. tetanus, as advised by your doctor.
