Mothers are unlikely to pass COVID-19 to their newborns if they follow recommended precautions, a small study suggests.
"We hope our study will provide some reassurance to new mothers that the risk of them passing COVID-19 to their babies is very low. However, larger studies are needed to better understand the risks of transmission from mother to child," said co-leader Dr. Christine Salvatore, a pediatric infectious disease specialist from Weill Cornell Medicine-New York Presbyterian Komansky Children's Hospital in New York City.
