Abstract
Little is known about the effects of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on pregnant mothers and their infants. Moreover, there is no definitive evidence that SARS CoV- 2 can be vertically transmitted from an infected mother to the unborn fetus.
