COVID-19 vaccination lowers risks during pregnancy, UBC study finds
December 15, 2025
Vaccination against COVID-19 among pregnant individuals sharply lowers the risk of hospitalization, admission to intensive care and premature births, the largest Canadian study of its kind shows.
The report analyzed outcomes from nearly 20,000 COVID-impacted pregnancies between April, 2021, and December, 2022, capturing both the Delta and Omicron waves of the virus. Data was included from eight provinces and one territory. The study was led by University of British Columbia researchers and released on Monday in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Ontario Provincial Police say an 18-year-old man from Mississippi Mills, Ont., was fatally injured in a single-vehicle crash west of Ottawa late Monday night. The car's driver is facing three impaired driving charges.
