First-trimester COVID Vaccination is 28% More Dangerous than Third-trimester, Another Study Shows
For a safe vaccine "not affecting pregnancy", the trimester would not matter.
My two recent posts mentioned a disturbing pattern appearing in several studies of children born to COVID-19-vaccinated mothers. For a yet unknown reason, children born to mothers vaccinated during the first trimester of pregnancy consistently show a greater rate of developmental problems compared to vaccinations done during the third trimester.
By pure luck (searching for information about the RSV vaccine,) I stumbled upon another study showing the same pattern.
The Canadian authors proclaim that their study did not find any problems in infants born to vaccinated mothers:
However, the data provided in the Supplement shows the same pattern we saw in the two previous trimester analyses: children born to mothers vaccinated early in pregnancy show worse developmental outcomes than those vaccinated in the third trimester. The Canadian study we are discussing today lumped the first and second trimesters together but still demonstrated the difference in outcomes between “early” and “late” vaccinations.
Take a look at eTable 7 in the supplement. I highlighted (in blue) the outcomes that were worse for infants whose mothers got the vaccine in the first and second trimester, compared to the third trimester:
What is in that table? It shows the relative risk of certain events (for example, neonatal ICU admission) for the given subgroups - which are compared to the unvaccinated mothers. The column “SUBGROUP ANALYSIS 3” that I highlighted shows analysis by trimester.
You can see (in the blue circles) that the risks of negative outcomes for the two subgroups, compared to unvaccinated mothers, show a higher relative risk for those mothers who were vaccinated during the first or second trimester.
A child given birth by an early-vaccinated mother has a 28% greater chance of a low Apgar score. For those who are not parents, the Apgar score is a quick rating given to newborns to see how well they are doing post-birth. A low Apgar score demonstrates serious health concerns, for example, being limp, not breathing on their own, etc.
This video explains the Apgar score:
Can a “safe vaccine” that has “no effect on pregnancy” cause a 28% greater chance of a newborn with serious problems having a very low Apgar score, if given during the first trimester as opposed to the third trimester?
That does not seem plausible!
Anyway, if any future mother you know is dead set on receiving a Covid vaccine during pregnancy, at least try to talk them into waiting until the third trimester.
What do you think? Why do first-trimester vaccinations show much greater risks to newborns across the board? Is that because their major organs are forming early in pregnancy?
Let us know what you think!
How are the numbers for 1 trimester compared to controls in group two. Why do they mix first and second trimester. Is that to blur the results? Could they provide these data seperately?
I know what follows is not about a vaccine, but it shows how sensitive the foetus is in the various trimesters of pregnancy.
I lived through the Chernobyl event in Romania in 1986. There were several pregnant women in the institute where my father worked. Those who were pregnant in the first trimester when the radioactive cloud arrived, they all lost the baby, or gave birth to severely malformed babies, who would not live. Those in trimesters 2 and 3 of pregnancy were OK.
