The clinical characteristics of these patients with COVID-19 during pregnancy were similar to those of non-pregnant adults with COVID-19 clinical symptoms from 33 Infections with or at risk of COVID-19 were mild and outcomes were favourable of the 3 neonates with symptomatic COVID-19, presented with early-onset SARS-CoV-2 infection. Because strict infection control and prevention procedures were implemented during the delivery, it is likely that the sources of SARS-CoV-2 in the clinical findings or investigations suggestive of COVID-19 affected to mothers, and all samples, including amniotic fluid, cord blood, and breast milk, were negative for SARS-CoV-2.
