Moreover, the writing is done such that providers who do not have a background in the research and development of vaccines will still find the material understandable. While this book does contain reviews of several vaccines currently in development, it omits work being done on COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2). Given the rapidly shifting developments regarding potential vaccines for this virus, its exclusion may benefit the book by allowing it to avoid reviewing information that becomes dated quickly and instead focus on the immunizations with scientifically proven benefits to both mothers and children.\" \u003cb\u003e--Doody\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eImmunization during pregnancy with currently recommended vaccines prevents infection in the mother, the unborn fetus, and the young infant, and there is an increasing focus from different stakeholders to use this approach for other infections of importance to protect these vulnerable groups.
