Covid boosters, Vaccine hesitancy in pregnancy, Group B strep
James Gallagher asks a popular listener question: will we need boosters forever? And why have so few pregnant women had the Covid vaccine when it's best for mother and baby?
Will we need boosters forever? It’s the question you wanted us to tackle so we’re joined by Prof Beate Kampmann, the Director of The Vaccine Centre at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, in the search for answers.
Then we explore why so few pregnant women are taking up the Covid vaccine even though it is the best option for mother and baby.
And can we stop another infection in babies - Group B Strep - which can have devastating consequences.
