A couple from Southern California passed away from Covid-19 and left five children behind. The couple, Daniel and Davy Macias, died just days apart after they were infected with the Delta Variant which they got on a vacation. Davy was unable to get vaccinated due to being pregnant at the time. Davy’s bother, Vong Serey, confirmed that his sister was not vaccinated due to her pregnancy.  It was unclear whether Daniel was vaccinated or not.

 

Both of them were admitted into the ICU after showing severe symptoms. Davy was still in the ICU, when she gave birth via Caesarean section. She never got to hold and see her baby because just eight days after giving birth she passed away from Covid-19 complications. Daniel was able to get a glimpse of his daughter, and after three days was intubated as his condition worsened. He died less than two weeks after Davy passed away.

Very sad! ????

Sorry but you make wrong choices and  you suffer their consequences. No one in the US needs to wait on getting a Covid vaccine shot, you can get at many pharmacies no appointment nesscesary. Do not have to even be a US citizen. Pregnant women can be given any of the 3 shots used in the US  as tests have shown that there is no danger from vaccine to the fetus. Guess was also the husband's choice not to vaccinate, so then you take your chance on if you survive or not.

Sad but totally preventable, RIP

A sweet happy young family but no more. He was obese so he had at least that high risk.

 

He was NOT vaccinated.

I hope the "open and be damned" crowd read this thread.

   Similar to a case from Texas a few weeks ago.  Both parents, both unvaccinated, died of covid within days of each other, leaving, I believe, 4 children who are now orphans.  

COVID-19 vaccine FAQ: Answers to your most common questions

The CDC updated its guidance in August to recommend that people who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant should get vaccinated against COVID-19, citing a growing amount of data verifying the safety of the vaccines during pregnancy.

"I would say if you're pregnant, not only is it a good idea to get the vaccine on the basis of safety, but it's highly effective and important because you are at increased risk of bad outcomes if you get COVID," said Surgeon General Vivek Murthy. 

Although pregnant people were not included in the initial clinical trials, tens of thousands of pregnant women have now gotten the shots safely. Additional research has found no safety issues and no increased risk of miscarriage.

Many doctors say the shots are especially important because of the known risk of severe illness from COVID-19 during pregnancy.

"I recommend highly that all pregnant women be immunized, from initial discovery of the pregnancy right up to term," Dr. Bob Lahita, professor of medicine New York Medical College and chairman of medicine St. Joseph University Hospital, said on CBSN. He said there is "no evidence" that the vaccine "has any effect on the placenta, on the fetus, on the mother. Except if one gets the infection, the COVID, and you are pregnant, you run the risk of becoming very, very sick."
