There's nothing like that blissful moment when you realize you can impart your child with magic powers before they're even born. You're probably just hoping and praying they'll be the next Superman, Harry Potter, or at least have the ability to clean up their crayon marks off the walls. But guess what? Brace yourself, because COVID-19 vaccines might just enable you to add at least one superpower to your baby’s arsenal. Hospitals across the nation are buzzing with excitement after recent research suggested that 'Mommy's COVID-19 shot masters 'womb immunity' and offers free shield service to infants! Between March 2022 and May 2023, pregnant women who received at least one COVID-19 vaccine dose were shown to endow their infants with reduced risk for COVID-19-related hospitalizations. A neat perk indeed, rivaling “your choice of super strength or invisibility,” in popularity loads are saying. The protection was akin to the charm that mothers had during the period of Omicron variant predominance. And here you thought Omicron was just a Star Trek character name George Takei made up while sipping too much interstellar brandy. "The data is compelling," scientists have said, in between hours of squinting at complicated charts. "Sure, it's no invisibility cloak or magic wand, but warding off a virus is still pretty magical in our books," they continued, throwing nerdy moon eyes at their calculations. Even more exciting? Babies under 3 months seemed to have even higher protection, making them practically invincible miniature superheroes. This aligns with at least one other study, which was probably conducted by people who love babies and want them to have cool superpowers, too. The world eagerly anticipates the day when vaccinated mothers can proudly say, "Timmy, I gave you life, and I gave you your super immunity powers." Until then, mothers are content knowing that their vaccinated babies are well protected right from the start, even though they can't swoop around saving folks with a Superman insignia just yet. To the mothers-to-be, if this still hasn't made you sprint towards the nearest vaccine center, nothing will. In the meantime, for the ones who have already taken the shot while crooning 'Under the Sea' lullaby on endless loop, rest easy knowing this may just be the first step to coaxing more superpowers out of your mommy magic. Here’s to all moms becoming the original shot masters in the ballad of womb immunity! Infant shields up, everyone! COVID doesn’t stand a chance.
