COVID-19 in Pregnant Women: Case Series from One Large New York City Obstetrical Practice
Abstract
COVID-19 changed the world in 2020. One of the questions we get a lot is how it affects pregnant women. However, most studies only include hospitalized patients, making it seem like outcomes are worse than they might be.
