A recent study published in Nature Communications has found that infants born to mothers who contracted COVID-19 during pregnancy have a threefold increased risk of developing respiratory distress. The COVID Outcomes in Mother-Infant Pairs (COMP) Study suggests that prenatal exposure to the virus may activate an inflammatory response in the newborn's airway, leading to respiratory issues. However, the risk is not as high when moms were vaccinated, indicating that vaccination during pregnancy can significantly reduce the risk of respiratory distress in newborns.

Check it out! My first free-lance story for @sciam! Babies exposed to Covid in the womb (because their unvaccinated moms got Covid) are more likely to develop respiratory distress, which can lead them to be on ventilators. https://t.co/pgODni7top
