Risk to a developing fetus from vaccination of the mother during pregnancy is theoretical. No evidence exists of risk to the fetus from vaccinating pregnant women with inactivated virus or bacterial vaccines or toxoids. Live vaccines administered to a pregnant woman pose a theoretical risk to the fetus; therefore, live, attenuated virus and live bacterial vaccines generally are contraindicated during pregnancy.

Benefits of vaccinating pregnant women usually outweigh potential risks when the likelihood of disease exposure is high, when infection would pose a risk to the mother or fetus, and when the vaccine is unlikely to cause harm.

CDC. General recommendations on immunization: recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). MMWR 2011; 60 (No. 2): 26.

You're having sex and shes on the pill so her chances of getting pregnant are something like 5 or 10 % in a year. Much lower that you got her pregnant in the 10 days prior to the vacine which would not

be picked up on the pregnancy test.

Match that up with the "theoretical" probability of harm from the vaccine and I would just deny having sex and get the vaccines.

How did the chest xray turn out on this possibly pregnant young lady?

If you're the type of guy who won't pull the label off a mattress under penalty of law, and are scrupulously honest

there is no need to "keep it in your pants". Just keep it out of one particular place

^^^ At least the CDC is not saying anymore that vaccines are safe during pregnancy. It's good to see they are grudgingly acknowledging that there is a much wider debate about the safety of vaccines during pregnancy, and about vaccines in general.

I applaud St. Lukes. :thumbs:

If the lady in question is taking oral contraceptives, then certain antibiotics taken orally decrease the effectiveness of that class of contraceptives, so another method of birth control should be used for the period both before and after using antibiotics. I don't know if that applies to any of vaccinations administered by SLEC.
