    My sister is a DNP and midwife. She explained very simply that with COVID, a woman’s body will sacrifice a pregnancy to keep the mother alive. So the benefits of a vaccine outweigh any side effects.

    Does it still count as news?

    It has a relevance because of the new vaccine rules, and because the Delta variant could still come roaring back with lowered vaccine rates.

    But is this the wrong instance?

      Just because it’s “old” (it’s not you’re just on 24 hour news cycle brain) doesn’t mean it’s not highly relevant and likely still very much “new” to plenty of people. The point of the the news isn’t just to report and only ever speak about the most up today version of the news possible it’s also about informing the public about important issues, like public health, which this very much does. With the new ban on pregnant women getting the vaccine and the rise of criminal punishments for miscarriages and still births a lot of women can be looking at probation or jail time because they were denied vital and basic healthcare. Once you’re in the system as a “criminal” I can guarantee this administration will have some plan for your future, a lot of innocent greivibg women are going to be very vulnerable going forward

    Are we still talking covid-19? There are lots of variants out there. This seems like one of those sensational headlines

      COVID placentitis has continued to be documented between this 2022 article and the present. Subsequent variants may damage the placenta to greater or lesser degrees than Delta. But with new restrictions causing a lower vaccination rate, the risk will increase.
