    The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists has proposed a new vaccine schedule for pregnant individuals, differing from CDC guidelines.

    ACOG recommends four vaccines during pregnancy: Tdap, RSV, influenza, and Covid-19, with additional vaccines for at-risk individuals.

  • 3

    The CDC's current recommendations include only Tdap and RSV vaccines for pregnant people, with previous guidance on influenza and Covid-19 withdrawn.

    ACOG's new guidelines aim to provide reliable information amid confusion caused by changing recommendations and vaccine misinformation.

    The ACOG schedule also includes vaccine recommendations for breastfeeding and postpartum individuals, reflecting a shift from CDC policies.
