Should pregnant women get the COVID-19 vaccine? A doctor weighs in
KSBW ^ | Dec 10, 2020 | Lisa Robinson

As the nation gears up for distributing a COVID-19 vaccine, many questions remain about who should get it, particularly when it comes to pregnant women.

"(It's) definitely something my husband and I have been talking about," said Caroline Nosbisch, who is 20 weeks pregnant and eager to add to her family. Nosbisch is considering whether to get the COVID-19 vaccine if it's offered to her.

"My husband is a first responder, so he has a high exposure with his job — that's still a big concern for us, what he's doing on a day-to-day basis and what he could bring home," she said.

Doctor weighs in by telling people to talk to their doctor about it, “O’Reilly said women who are pregnant, breastfeeding or planning to get pregnant should talk with their doctor about their medical history so that a decision about getting vaccinated can be made together. “

No.
If she is not otherwise sick and has no co-morbidities, then no. The Chicom flu has something like a 99%+ survival rate even if the she gets sick.
The vaccine has been rushed through development. There are significant side effects. She should wait about a year until other folks have tested the vaccine for her.
I am sure as hell not taking that thing until I am pretty sure it is save.
No, I am not an anti-Vaxxer.

NO, if you start to feel sick take Ivermectin

you can order ivermectin(Stromectol) online from a canadian pharmacy, I ordered viagra from them before and they called after placing order, a few minutes on phone and it showed up 2 weeks later.

Pregnant women were not in the studies, so right now? No. We just don’t know enough.

Interesting question— certainly as regards what is the “devil in the details” of the effects of inserting mRna and other adjuvants into a vaccine that will cross the placenta. There HAS to be a labeling as the protection of the unborn, and the mother. Class labeling, no matter how fast this passed the FDA.

Of more pressing concern, in that regard, and prior to mandating, or trying to force vaccination— is the TRUE science knowledge of protection from infection— of any coronavirus- by natural immunity (for example from the Marik Protocol from East Va. Medical School). D3, Quercitin, etc. which will NOT have the affect on the developing fetus. This is not an uninformed opinion, as seen by this physician’s comments, and many other without a political “dog in the hunt”.

So it hasnt been tested on pregnant wormen
Therefore the doctor says its Ok....

Who would want to artificially alter their biochemistry with a fetus developing inside?

WHat if you have a reaction to this vaccination?

Say, for instance my daughter had a reaction to an antibiotic prescribed to her for acne. It took about six weeks (the average for everyone who has this same reaction I saw after doing some research.

She developed severe hives. Thankfully not in her throat but all over her body and particularly painful hives on the bottom of her feet. It took a round of steroids and some time to clear up but she sporadically had hive outbreaks right before getting sick, when under stress, etc. for about 3 years.

This isn't something that will work it's way out of your body after time, right? So, it could cause constant inflammation or a reaction like she had that never goes away? Seems that way to me.

... Caroline Nosbisch, who is 20 weeks pregnant and eager to add to her family.

If she's pregnant, she has already added to her family.

. . . whereas medical workers and seniors such as I have an entirely different calculus.

I don’t disagree that women of childbearing age can at least hold off from being early adopters. It’s not as if we’ll have enough vaccine for every high-priority person in the next 2, even 3, months.

An argument from caution lines up with an argument from scarcity.

This is a brand new vaccine and initial testing is NEVER performed with pregnant women, for obvious reasons. Pregnant women should wait on the vaccine.

Sounds like nobody in the media is familiar with the history of Thalidomide. It might be a useful study in regard to this this discussion about rushing a drug into circulation.

HHHHHMMM. Perhaps this is a way to wiggle out from being forced to take the vaccine. I’ll identify as a woman — that takes care of half the problem and can never be disputed — and then just say that I am pregnant. I’m betting that any woman who says she is pregnant will not have to take a test to prove it. Problem solved!

Invermectin is also on amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/Ivermectin-Paste-Dewormer-6-08g-Flavor/dp/B000HHLWPI/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=ivermectin&qid=1607632895&sr=8-5

Don’t forget to buy zinc and quercitin too. Very important to have everything on hand before you get sick.
