Breastfeeding promotes the good health of mothers and infants and is a crucial international public health issue None of the COVID-19 vaccines currently in phase 3 trials have been trialled in breastfeeding women Pfizer's current recommendation states that breastfeeding women should "ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before you receive this vaccine" To improve maternal-infant health and maintain public confidence in vaccines in handling this pandemic and preparing for the next, vaccine manufacturers and regulators must work closely with lactation scientists, infectious disease specialists, and public health experts to assess vaccine safety in breastfeeding women at early stages of product development It is encouraging that many nations, including England, are now adopting a more positive tone around vaccine recommendations for breastfeeding women, but in many cases the finer points of the recommendation will still lie with individual providers or institutions (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved).

These results, together with the comparable sizes of pigs and humans, indicate that the pig is a valuable model for understanding how best to apply mAbs as therapy in humans and for monitoring antigenic drift of influenza viruses in humans, thereby providing information highly relevant to making influenza vaccine recommendations.

Compared with historic norms, YF-Vax usage following initial vaccine availability limitations did not change until vaccine recommendations were broadened.

Providers' vaccine recommendations were impacted by health system factors, including clinical infrastructure, processes for recommending and documenting vaccination, and office visit priorities.

Uncertainties about vaccine waning and effects of a delay on vaccine coverage suggest it is premature to change current vaccine recommendations, although it may be prudent to prevent a substantial shift toward early vaccination.

Reasons for non-payment varied, but generally related to the complexity of adult vaccine recommendations (patient diagnosis does not match recommendations) or insurance coverage (complex contracts, multiple insurance payers).

Since pregnant women are an important segment of the population that may require vaccines, pharmacists should be aware of vaccine recommendations as well as contraindications in pregnancy.
