Only in the event that the gynecologist deems it convenient for the woman to be immunized against a disease for which she has not been previously vaccinated. It should be emphasized that only vaccines with inactivated viruses, bacterial vaccines, and toxoids, such as diphtheria, tetanus, cholera, meningococcus, pneumococcus, hepatitis, rabies, poliomyelitis, etc., can be administered during pregnancy.

Influenza vaccine should also be offered to all pregnant women during the periods of the year when they are most susceptible to infection.
