What if pregnant women get COVID? The precautions that every mother must take:

                  It is a common belief that if a pregnant woman is infected with COVID-19, her baby must also be born with the virus. However, in the light of various researches, doctors say that so far no evidence has been found that the virus was transmitted from a pregnant woman to her child.

                 Dr. Urooj Naz, an obstetrician and gynecologist at Dr. Shaista Lodhi Medical Center, says that if a woman suffers from COVID at the beginning of pregnancy, the risk of the baby being infected is minimal. The growth of the baby will not be affected and the health of the baby will not be affected and if the mother is infected with corona virus in the last months of pregnancy or after the birth of the baby, then the mother needs to be very careful.

               The following are all the precautions mentioned by Dr. Urooj:
