Curious about how the new RSV vaccine could protect your baby? Join me, Florence, as we uncover the latest addition to the UK’s maternal vaccination program. In this episode of the OBSpod, I break down everything you need to know about the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine. Learn how this innovative recombinant vaccine works & why it's crucial for infants under a year old.
Expectant mothers, healthcare professionals, and anyone interested in maternal and infant health will find this episode particularly enlightening. I'll guide you through the rationale behind the vaccine's introduction and its expected impact on both families and the NHS. We’ll also revisit some key points from our previous discussions on pregnancy vaccinations, offering a well-rounded perspective on this significant healthcare advancement. Tune in to arm yourself with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions about the RSV vaccine or to confidently advise others about it.
