We strongly support the call to increase COVID-19 vaccination in pregnancy recently published in IJGO. 1 The authors found that 20.0% of pregnant persons enrolled in September 2021 in the state of Guanajuato, Mexico received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine during pregnancy. Vaccination before pregnancy was not likely in early 2021, as the COVID-19 vaccination kickoff in Mexico was at the end of December 2020. 2 Since then, the vaccination coverage in Guanajuato has increased. Official records from March 2021 to May 2022 estimate that 66.1% of women of reproductive age received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. 3 A twopronged approach is needed to protect pregnant persons: increasing the vaccination rate among women of reproductive age, and increasing vaccination during pregnancy. The low coverage of COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy is a global issue, not limited to low-and middle-income countries. The authors cited a study performed in the United Kingdom in 2021, showing that 10.5% of pregnant persons received at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine during pregnancy. 4 In the United States during the week ending October 1, 2022, 70.5% of pregnant persons were fully vaccinated for COVID-19 before pregnancy, 0.5% were vaccinated before and during pregnancy, and only 0.5% were fully vaccinated during pregnancy. 5 A recent systematic review estimated COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy to be close to 50% among pregnant and breastfeeding women. 6 The authors noted in their Correspondence that "COVID-19 has been a leading cause of maternal mortality and severe morbidity in the study's setting over the past few years". 7 COVID-19 is indeed a major cause of morbidity and mortality during pregnancy. 8 Maternal mortality associated with COVID-19 is high in Latin America. 9 In Mexico, COVID-19 ranked as the first cause of maternal mortality in 2021, with 465 deaths, 10 while in 2022, maternal deaths from COVID-19 decreased to sixth place, with 29 deaths at epidemiologic week 38. 11 This improvement might be related in part to vaccination in pregnant persons and women of reproductive age. COVID-19vaccines are safe in pregnancy. 12,13 Their use should be actively promoted before and during pregnancy.
