Using SMS to monitor adverse events following trivalent influenza vaccination in pregnant women

Using SMS to monitor adverse events following trivalent influenza vaccination in pregnant women

An article from the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology

From the article abstract: "Trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) has been recommended for pregnant women in Australia for more than a decade and funded since 2009, yet vaccination coverage remains low. Misperceptions of the safety of TIV in pregnancy have been identified as a major contributor to low vaccination rates. Ongoing safety monitoring with dissemination of results could help improve antenatal influenza vaccine uptake."
