AbstractIn the context of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the quickly developed COVID-19 vaccine may cause various adverse reactions, especially in special groups, such as pregnant women. However, many pregnant women have concerns regarding vaccination in terms of safety for themselves and their neonates. Therefore, we studied the obstetric outcomes of pregnant women in Zunyi, China. In this retrospective study, we examined differences between pregnant women who were vaccinated and pregnant women who were not vaccinated/vaccinated at the end of pregnancy. In addition, we collected and retrieved the literature related to the COVID-19 vaccine and pregnancy outcomes from PubMed. Among concluded women, 369 were included in the study group and 231 were included in the control group. There were no differences in the baseline characteristics, labor rate, or rates of poor pregnancy outcomes between the 2 groups. Based on the adverse reaction and obstetric outcome data of pregnant women who received the COVID-19 vaccine in China, the vaccine does not raise any safety concerns. This result is the same as that of other countries we summarized. The COVID-19 vaccine has no effect on pregnancy outcomes.Copyright © 2024 the Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
