VK Paul pregnant women vaccines: It is important for pregnant women to get vaccinated, India's COVID-19 task force head Dr VK Paul said in a briefing Friday. The three vaccines in India are safe to use and guidelines from the centre have been issued for the same, he added.
"Apart from the mother, there is also a risk to the child in case she contracts the infection," Dr Paul said.
After a long wait, COVID-19 vaccines for pregnant women were granted central approval on July 2. Read about health ministry's guidelines here.
