Hello everyone
We’ve been contacted by the excellent Pregnant Then Screwed, who have just launched a project in collaboration with Full Fact to give pregnant women access to factual, unbiased information about the vaccine in pregnancy. People can message the WhatsApp number with a question and they will get a response about what we know on that particular topic.
The idea is to reduce the misinformation that is spreading like wildfire on this issue. Keeping pregnant women fully informed hasn’t happened well enough and with so few pregnant women vaccinated and 99% of pregnant women who are currently in ICU being unvaccinated, we agree with Pregnant Then Screwed that we really need to put control back into the hands of pregnant women.
The Whatsapp number is 07521770995. Anyone can message with a question and will get a factual, unbiased response.
We’re going to be launching a Mumsnet expert Q&A about the vaccine and women’s health - from menstruation, the menopause and fertility to pregnancy and breastfeeding - later this week, so keep an eye out for that, we’ll pin it around the site.
Thanks!
MNHQ
