February 2, 2026
Anna Bossert, DO, Chief, Division of Obstetrics

One of the most common questions our Reading Hospital OB/GYN team hears from expectant parents is how vaccines may affect pregnancy. That's understandable, as patients want to make the heathiest choices for their growing family.

Vaccines are recommended during pregnancy to protect against serious illnesses. They have been studied extensively and are scientifically proven safe for both mom and baby. Infections from different viruses can be life-threatening, and vaccines can protect you from preventable and potentially serious illness.
