FACT: You should get vaccinated against #COVID19 if you’re trying to get pregnant now or in the future. No evidence to date shows that any vaccines, including COVID-19 vaccines, can cause fertility problems in men or women. More: bit.ly/3iTYwaa.

We worked hard to pass vote to launch MACRO as a durable internal program. We won major funding to strengthen it, including $10mil from State! Join us in urging the administration to implement it timely and effectively! Admin’s Update coming to 9/14 committee at my request.
Oakland's City Council decided last year to create a non-police emergency response program for nonviolent 911 calls. The program, known as MACRO, probably won't launch until Nov. 2021, or Feb. 2022, explains the city administration in a new report.

There’s no data to suggest that the COVID-19 vaccines impact fertility. That’s why vaccination is recommended for anyone who is pregnant, has recently given birth, or may want to become pregnant in the future.
