It has not been proven that the infection is transmitted to the baby in the
uterus. It is currently known that pregnant women with COVID-19 are mostly infected
in the last period of pregnancy. In general, the clinical course of the disease is similar
to non-pregnant ones. Most drugs can be given to these women in the treatment of
COVID-19 and its complications, while some are dangerous. In addition, women with
COVID-19 can and should breastfeed their babies with adherence to universal
precautions and hygiene. Tomography can be elicited in pregnant women due to this
vital requirement. When pregnant women are suspected of having COVID-19, they
have priority for treatment and hospitalization.
Compared to adults, children have less tendency to be infected with the disease, and
they recover from the disease with milder symptoms. Stronger immunity in children
fed with breast milk and other vaccines is also a supportive assumption. Fever and
respiratory complaints are common in children. Increased inflammatory markers and
low lymphocyte count (and percentage) in complete blood count (lymphopenia) are
less common in children.
