What vaccines are recommended for pregnant individuals?

HepB
Tdap and Influenza
Varicella
MMR

The correct answer is: Tdap and Influenza

Vaccines recommended for pregnant individuals are carefully chosen to provide protection for both the pregnant individual and their unborn baby. The two vaccines recommended during pregnancy are Tdap (Tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis) and Influenza. Tdap is particularly important during the third trimester of each pregnancy to pass on protective antibodies to the baby, providing immunity during the first few months of life. Influenza vaccine is recommended due to the increased risk of complications pregnant individuals face from the flu. The other options, such as HepB, Varicella, and MMR, are generally not recommended during pregnancy due to safety concerns, except in specific situations where the benefit outweighs the risk and should be administered as per healthcare provider recommendations.
