RSV and whooping cough vaccination clinics for pregnant women

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a common and highly infectious respiratory virus that affects the breathing system, particularly in young children and older adults. RSV infections often lead to mild cold-like symptoms, but in some cases, especially in infants and individuals with compromised immune systems, it can cause severe respiratory issues and hospitalisation.

Pregnant women are being offered the vaccine during antenatal appointments with their midwife from 28 weeks into their pregnancy. The timing of the vaccine offer will help protect their newborn babies from serious illness caused by an RSV infection.

There will be vaccinations available at antenatal clinics across the Trust. Pertussis (whooping cough) vaccinations are also available for pregnant women at these clinics.
