“…A review about the safety of maternal pneumococcal vaccination found no differences in stillbirth [ 9 , 16 ], spontaneous abortions [ 16 ], congenital birth defects [ 16 ], or prematurity rates [ 17 ] in women who were vaccinated compared to those who were not [ 18 ]. These studies only found the expected effects including local tenderness or pain [ 10 , 13 , 14 , 17 ], swelling [ 10 , 13 , 14 ], or fever [ 10 , 13 , 14 , 17 ]. Hence, all current studies support the safety of maternal pneumococcal vaccination.…”
