The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that all adults receive certain vaccinations to protect against harmful and deadly infections. These recommendations are based on a person's age, health status, and certain risk factors.
Some vaccinations are routinely recommended during pregnancy, while others are delayed until after pregnancy. Other vaccinations might be recommended under certain circumstances after discussing risks and benefits with your pregnancy care provider
