A limited study conducted by NYU Langone Health found pregnant women who receive an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine during pregnancy passed high levels of antibodies to their babies.
Existing studies analyzed antibodies to the spike protein (anti-S IgG) alone, which may be present after natural infection or vaccination, and do not include antibodies to the nucleocapsid protein (anti-N IgG), which is only present following natural infection.

How Long Does Immunity Last in COVID-19 Vaccinated People
California-based La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI) scientists’ new study helps answer the question: how long does immunity against COVID-19 last in vaccinated people?

And no indicator vaccinated people will need a booster shot from this mRNA vaccine.
