*Pregnant Women With COVID-19 More Likely To Die - Study* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?bh A recent study has indicated that pregnant women infected with COVID-19 face much higher risks of severe, death and deadly complications during childbirth. Researchers found that ill mothers-to-be had a 76 percent higher risk of developing preeclampsia – a pregnancy complication characterized by high blood pressure – and 59 percent more likely to give birth prematurely, requiring their infants to spend more time in neonatal intensive care units. ---------- *HOT DEALS:* *itel A70 - (128GB, 3GB RAM) $89,* *itel A70 - (256GB, 4GB RAM) $99* *itel P40 (128GB, 4GB), (6000mAh) $99* *itel P40 (64GB, 4G), (6000mAh) $93* *LATEST: itel S24 (128) $124; S24 (256GB) $159* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

The international team, led by the University of Oxford in the UK, says the findings affirm previous research on the effects of the virus on pregnant women and show the importance of making sure this high-risk group gets vaccinated. The team looked at more than 2 100 pregnant women who were treated between March 2020 and October 2020 from 18 countries including France, India, Italy, Japan, the UK and the U.S. Dr Aris Papageorghiou, a professor of fetal medicine at the University of Oxford in England and the co-author, told UPI that pregnant women with COVID-19 face a number of risks including: Direct risks of the virus itself – needing to go to intensive care and have respiratory support, Higher risks of hypertension and pre-eclampsia and effects of medical interventions such as preterm birth. Co-author Dr Michael Gravett, a professor of obstetrics and gynaecology at the University of Washington School of Medicine, highly recommended that all pregnant women receive the COVID-19 vaccines. A CDC study that looked at 35 000 pregnant women who have received either the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna coronavirus vaccines showed rates of miscarriage, stillbirth, complications, birth defects and premature birth were all comparable between women who had the shots and those who had not. Results showed: Expecting mothers with COVID-19 were 3.3 times more likely to develop severe illness and five times more likely to be admitted to intensive care units. Fever and shortness of breath – common coronavirus symptoms – were linked to 2.56 greater risk of maternal complications and 4.97 times higher risk of complications for newborns. Those diagnosed with coronavirus were 76 percent more likely to develop preeclampsia and 59 percent more likely to give birth prematurely.
