The US flu season is approaching, and despite knowing the risks associated with influenza, many pregnant women fail to get vaccinated. Data shows less than half of pregnant patients choose the vaccine, even though it can protect both mom and baby from severe illness. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) has updated its guidance recommending that all pregnant people receive the flu vaccine during flu season, regardless of trimester. Dr. Neil Silverman, a leading expert in obstetrics and gynecology, is now available for interviews to discuss the benefits of getting vaccinated before delivery.
