@Reuters #askreuters I cannot seem to get an answer from the Florida Department of health on this question. I have severe allergies to crustaceans and Iodine. Do I have a risk taking the vaccine?

Someone was just talking to me about this! Experts, what say you on allergies? #AskReuters https://t.co/AQL94DHDdT

@LaurenYoung Allergic reactions to #COVID19 #vaccine have occurred in about 1 in 100,000 people (https://t.co/RsKeR2rwFm). About 3/4 occur within 15 mins. None of these have been fatal. I have a teen w/ life-threatening #peanutallergy &amp; plan to vaccinate him. #AskReuters

@tmprowell @DrJenGunter @LaurenYoung I have a friend in healthcare that has refused the vaccine until more info is available on its effects on women seeking to become pregnant. Is there anything out there that can allay her concern?

@billyboy14 @tmprowell @DrJenGunter @LaurenYoung Many pregnant &amp; nursing mothers have revived the vaccine. ACOG says it should be available, but patients should speak with their physician or provider. https://t.co/jXJKYsAlRz

@ShooguhLipz @billyboy14 @DrJenGunter @LaurenYoung Pregnant ppl were excluded from #COVID19 #Vaccine #clinicaltrials. See screenshot from FDA adv comm discussing Moderna #COVID19 #vaccine. This op ed by @DrTsion Firew may also help when considering #vaccination in #pregnancy: https://t.co/iv3Elblrnq.

@tmprowell @Reuters @ShooguhLipz @billyboy14 @DrJenGunter @LaurenYoung @DrTsion That seems to be a problem with a lot of clinical trials.

@tmprowell @ShooguhLipz @DrJenGunter @LaurenYoung @DrTsion Thank you!

@GetWilder81 @tmprowell @Reuters @billyboy14 @DrJenGunter @LaurenYoung @DrTsion It’s pretty standard.
