About

This is a multicenter prospective study that aims to investigate the clinical impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnant women, pregnancy outcomes and perinatal transmission.

Full description

This is a cohort study of pregnant women confirmed positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Data will be collected in Portuguese maternities that agreed to collaborate in this study.
