Pregnant women in Hampshire are being urged to get vaccinated ahead of winter.
The NHS is encouraging them to receive COVID-19, flu, RSV, and whooping cough vaccines.
More than 3,000 RSV vaccinations have been given to pregnant women in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight since October 2024.
Dr Charlotte Hutchings, a GP in Hampshire, said: "It is great to see so many pregnant women coming forward to have their vaccinations and I would like to encourage all eligible pregnant women to take up the offer. It is really important as having the vaccinations helps to protect you and your baby from becoming seriously unwell.
"It's safe to have the flu and COVID-19 vaccinations during any stage of pregnancy, from the first few weeks up to your expected due date. It's also safe for people who are breastfeeding to have the vaccines."
The RSV vaccine is offered around 28 weeks, and whooping cough from 16 weeks.
Vaccinations help protect both mothers and their unborn babies.
