NEW: All school staff in California must get vaccinated or be tested weekly, Gov. Gavin Newsom says, making California the first state in the nation to enact this mandate.

The CDC's update is based on new evidence that the vaccine officially poses no safety concerns for pregnant people vaccinated late in pregnancy, or for their babies, and no increased risk for miscarriage. The CDC also found no increased risk of miscarriage among people who got vaccinated during the first trimester.
Pregnant people were not initially included in the clinical studies for the vaccines so the CDC couldn't definitively say vaccines were safe and effective -- though it's long been recommended by officials. Last week, two of the nation's leading women's health organizations, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine , came out in full support of vaccinations for pregnant people.
Just 23% of pregnant people received one dose of a vaccine during pregnancy as of July 31, according to CDC data.
