Two new studies show how COVID-19 threatens the health of pregnant people and their newborn infants, with one showing that unvaccinated pregnant people who got COVID were much more likely to have a stillborn infant or one that dies in the first 28 days.
A study conducted in Scotland showed that unvaccinated pregnant people who got COVID were much more likely to have a stillborn infant or one that dies in the first 28 days. The study also found that pregnant women infected with COVID died and needed hospitalization at a much higher rate than vaccinated women who got pregnant.
The problems were more likely if the infection occurred 28 days or less before the delivery date, the researchers said. Vaccinated women who were pregnant had complication rates that were about the same for all pregnant women, the study shows., found that women who got COVID while pregnant in five Western U.S. states were more likely to have premature births, low birth weights, and stillbirths, even when the COVID cases are mild.
