One of the efforts to prevent contracting the COVID-19 virus is the administration of the COVID-19 vaccine. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness and safety of administering the COVID-19 vaccine during pregnancy.

Based on the results of a literature review from 17 articles related to the effectiveness and safety of the COVID-19 vaccine, it shows that vaccination in pregnancy can provide protection for the mother and fetus.
