Myth: “I shouldn’t get the COVID-19 vaccine if I am pregnant or breastfeeding."
Fact: The vaccines cannot cause infection in anyone, including the mother or the baby. Recent reports have shown that breastfeeding moms who have received the vaccines have antibodies in their breastmilk, which could help protect their babies.
I got the vaccine because I know it will not only protect me but my baby as well.
As a certified member of #TeamBakunanay 💉🧑🍼 I believe that vaccines are one of the greatest medical breakthroughs that we have, so we must maximize its power by making sure that we get the latest shots. Vaccines have made many infectious diseases a thing of the past. 💉 It also protects those who are unable to get the jab by limiting the overall number of cases and exposure.
