Summary

This study follows 6,000 pregnant women worldwide to compare health outcomes for those who received a COVID-19 vaccine during pregnancy versus those who did not. Researchers will track pregnancy complications, newborn health, and infant development up to 12 months old. The goal is to gather real-world data on vaccine safety, not to test a new treatment.

Who is studied

The target study population consists of pregnant women who are 18 years of age and older. The exposed group (Cohort 1) includes pregnant women who received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine from 30 days prior to the first day of the LMP to end of pregnancy. The reference group (Cohort 2) includes pregnant women who have not received a COVID-19 vaccine during pregnancy. Women vaccinated against COVID-19 before 30 days prior to the first day of the LMP are eligible in the reference group. Both cohorts will be matched by country of residence and gestational age at enrollment (±2 weeks).
