Spanish expert: pregnant women vaccinated can help neonatal immunization

Xinhua News Agency, Madrid, April 3 (Reporter Meng Dingbo and Xie Yuzhi) Since his mother had been vaccinated against the new crown virus during pregnancy, Bruno, who was recently born in Ibiza, Spain, became the country's first newborn born with antibodies to the new crown virus.

Bruno's mother received the new crown vaccine in the third trimester of pregnancy.

He said: "The child has antibodies that the mother passed on to him during pregnancy.

Grandall also revealed that the country does not currently require pregnant women to vaccinate the new crown vaccine, because "although there is no evidence that vaccination is harmful to pregnant women, there is not enough evidence for the safety of the vaccine at this time.

Cordo Carbonero, director of obstetrics and gynecology at a hospital in San Sebastian, Spain, further explained the transmission of new coronavirus antibodies between pregnant women and newborns from the perspective of immunology.

Carbonello said that if this theory is correct, then in the future, as long as pregnant women are vaccinated with a new coronavirus vaccine that does not carry the virus, the newborns will be immune to protection at the same time.
