"So far, pregnant women can not be vaccinated with "Sinopharm" and "Sinovac." Those pregnant can be vaccinated with "Pfizer" after consulting a doctor," said Paata Imnadze, the Deputy Director of the National Center for Disease Control, following a meeting of the Interagency Coordinating Council on coronavirus.
"The instructions to Sinopharm and Sinovac state that pregnant women should not be vaccinated because clinical trials on pregnant women have not been completed. Consequently, if there are no studies, they cannot be recorded in the instruction.
"Pfizer," writes in the instruction that after consulting a doctor and a pregnant woman, it is possible to vaccinate pregnant women who are at high risk. So, in the current situation, it is possible to vaccinate pregnant women with Pfizer, but not with Sinopharm and Sinovac," Imnadze said.
