Article Synopsis
- In Italy, there aren’t clear guidelines yet for pregnant women to get vaccinated against whooping cough (pertussis), but it might be suggested in the future.
- A survey with 343 women showed many were unsure about the benefits of the vaccine, and very few had actually received it during pregnancy.
- The study found that if doctors suggest getting vaccinated, many women still hesitate, so better education and communication are needed to help them understand the importance of vaccination.
