“…1 However, following recent publications showing that pregnancy and the postpartum period might indeed pose additional risks for both women and babies, these preliminary observations urgently require review. 2 (Table 1), a figure which is 3.4 times higher than the total number of COVID-19-related maternal deaths reported throughout the rest of the world at the time of writing. [3][4][5][6][7] The current mortality rate is 12.7% in the Brazilian obstetric population, which is also higher than rates reported so far in the literature.…”

Explanations for heightened risk may include relative immunodeficiency associated with maternal physiological adaptations, as well as organic response to virus infections.…”

É válido ressaltar que ao comparar mulheres não gestantes à população geral, elas não possuem maior risco de admissão em UTI ou de deterioração do quadro clínico (BLITZ, et al, 2020;WESTGREN, et al, 2020;. Assim, embora a gravidez represente um risco no contexto de outras infecções respiratórias -como a gripe, observa-se que a realidade se configura de outra forma na infecção pelo SARS-CoV-2 (JAMIESON, et al, 2009).…”
