Which immunizations are recommended during pregnancy?

Live vaccines
Flu and Tdap
MMR and Varicella
HPV vaccine

The correct answer is: Flu and Tdap

There are certain immunizations that are recommended during pregnancy to protect both the mother and the developing baby. These include the flu vaccine and the Tdap vaccine, which protects against tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis. Option A, live vaccines, are not recommended during pregnancy because they contain weakened versions of viruses that could potentially harm the developing baby. Option C, MMR and Varicella, are also not recommended during pregnancy because they contain live viruses. Option D, the HPV vaccine, is also not recommended during pregnancy because it is not considered necessary or urgent. However, it is recommended to get the HPV vaccine before becoming pregnant. Overall, the recommendation for immunizations during pregnancy is to prioritize those that will provide the most immediate protection for both mother and baby, such as the flu and Tdap vaccines.
