If you take your bitch to the vet in a carrier, ask for the tables to be wiped down properly, then the risk of contracting anything is nil....
Good advice. Also, when the bitch is closer to her due date, the vet will be able to judge how big the pups are and if her pelvic area will be able to expand for each pup to pass safely through. JMO.
