Article Synopsis
- - A study was conducted to assess the impact of COVID-19 on newborn outcomes by comparing babies born to mothers infected and not infected with the virus during late pregnancy.
- - Out of over 2000 pregnant women analyzed, those with COVID-19 had slightly higher rates of SARS-CoV-2 infection in newborns and longer hospital stays, but no significant differences in major neonatal complications were found.
- - The conclusion suggests that COVID-19 infection during late pregnancy does not significantly affect newborn growth and development, which could help inform medical management and clinical practices.*
