Can a novel coronavirus infection in a pregnant woman affect her fetus?

There are insufficient data to confirm the risk of maternal-fetal transmission of novel coronavirus, which means that a pregnant woman infected with novel coronavirus is unlikely to have a fetus infected with novel coronavirus. The effect of antiviral drugs applied to pregnant women on the fetus is also unlikely to be significant, as most antiviral drugs are safe for the fetus, but the combination of drugs may be used in treatment, and adverse reactions between drugs still need to be noted.

Whether a pregnant woman diagnosed with novel coronavirus infection can continue the pregnancy or not requires a combination of gestational weeks, medical conditions and other specific circumstances, which should be discussed by doctors of various disciplines before making a judgment.
