Coronavirus ‘mild’ in nine out of 10 pregnant women
But there were postpartum critical cases reported in the study from two US hospitals
Pregnant women with COVID-19 are often asymptomatic, and nearly nine out of 10 will have only mild disease, according to a study from two New York City hospitals.
The study includes all 43 pregnant women with COVID-19 treated at Columbia University Medical Centre and New York Presbyterian Hospital between 13 March and 27 March, 18 of whom delivered babies during that time.
