Abstract

Abstract : ( Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand . 2021;100:1611–1619) SARS-CoV-2 and the disease it causes, COVID-19, have been shown to be more severe in pregnant women due to a variety of factors. Researchers continue to investigate the specific effects COVID-19 has on pregnancies of infected women. This study examined hospital records from five Nordic countries for the characteristics and outcomes of pregnant women admitted to the hospital while infected with SARS-CoV-2 from March 1 to June 30, 2020.
