GriCoVax Study in 4 Maternity Wards in the Ile-de-France Region

Implementation of organizational adjustments can enhance involvement of healthcare teams in carrying out flu and pertussis vaccinations, and optimizing access to vaccines for women and their families. Pertussis vaccination of pregnant women is envisaged by the French Health Autority, considering that, given international experiences, vaccination during the second trimester of pregnancy is safe, effective, and would aim to protect babies during the first months of their life. Before considering such a recommendation in France, the acceptability of this strategy by pregnant women and health professionals must be considered.
