COVID-19 Can Complicate Pregnancy

Pregnant women with COVID-19 are more likely to be admitted into the intensive care unit.

They are also more likely to be put on ventilators, need life support, and die.

This is compared to coronavirus patients who aren't pregnant, a CDC report found.

Racial disparities existed too, with pregnant Hispanic women more likely to contract COVID-19.

Black women more likely to experience serious complications, whether or not they were pregnant.
