Prenatal Maternal COVID-19 and Offspring Risk for Morbidities Up to the Age of One Year
Offspring exposed to maternal COVID-19 infection were at increased risk for viral and COVID-19 infections up to the age of 1 year old, specifically if the mothers were infected during late third trimester. Offspring exposed to maternal COVID-19 infection earlier during gestation were at lower risk for viral infections including COVID-19 in the first year of life.
