Seasonal influenza vaccination during pregnancy and the risks of preterm delivery and small for gestational age birth.
The researchers examined the associations between seasonal influenza vaccination during pregnancy and the risks of PTD and SGA among a multiyear retrospective cohort of pregnancies. With the exception of pre-term delivery (PTD) associated with the 2009–10 seasonal vaccine, they found no meaningful increases in PTD or small for gestational age risks associated with seasonal trivalent influenza vaccination during pregnancy.
