Topic: Clinical Characteristics and Health Care Setting
- Li et al conducted a case-control study that included 16 pregnant women with confirmed COVID-19 pneumonia and 18 suspected cases who were admitted in their third trimester. They did not find any evidence to suggest that COVID-19 pneumonia causes severe maternal and neonatal complications among these women who had vaginal or caesarean section.
