Partner doesn’t want to get shots before baby

Su

My OB has said my partner needs the TDAP and flu shot before the baby is born but he says it’s not a deadly disease so he isn’t planning on getting it.

How would you approach this? It’s his first and he says that because pertussis isn’t an issue in Italy he’s not worried about it.

Side note: Here in America and even in my kid’s school district there have been pertussis outbreaks so my kids are getting the shot
