    Snippet: As of June 19, 2020 there are more than 8.6 million COVID-19 cases worldwide with over 450,000 deaths. Providing obstetrical care in the setting of the pandemic poses challenges to the healthcare system in that, in comparison to many other medical specialties, obstetrical care cannot be deferred.

    Document: As of June 19, 2020 there are more than 8.6 million COVID-19 cases worldwide with over 450,000 deaths. Providing obstetrical care in the setting of the pandemic poses challenges to the healthcare system in that, in comparison to many other medical specialties, obstetrical care cannot be deferred. Pregnant patients represent a high risk population for exposure and infection with respiratory pathogens and, as they require multiple points of contact with the healthcare system, are especially vulnerable. The purpose of this review is assess current epidemiology and outcomes research related to COVID-19 with a focus on obstetric patients. This review covers the global spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, symptomatology, modes of transmission, and current knowledge gaps related to epidemiology and outcomes for the obstetric population.
