- A comprehensive study of 434 children aged 18-30 months found no association between maternal mRNA COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy and autism or other neurodevelopmental problems in offspring. - The multi-center prospective observational study, conducted by the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Units Network from May 2024 to March 2025, compared children born to vaccinated and unvaccinated mothers using standardized developmental assessments. - Results showed no differences in neurodevelopmental outcomes between the two groups across five key developmental areas including communication, motor skills, problem-solving, and social interaction. - The research, funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, provides reassuring evidence for pregnant women considering COVID-19 vaccination.
