Maternal mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico: a preliminary analysis during the first year

Abstract: Background In Mexico, the COVID-19 pandemic led to preventative measures such as confinement and social interaction limitations that paradoxically may have aggravated healthcare access disparities for pregnant women and accentuated health system weaknesses addressing high-risk patients’ pregnancies.
