Coronavirus Can Spread From Gravidas To Their Child – Is It True?

According to CCTV – the National TV Station of China, a gravida infected with coronavirus (2019-nCoV) gave birth in Children Hospital of Wuhan – the spot-on-point of pneumonia pandemic.

After about 30 hours of birth, the newborn was tested to give a positive result to coronavirus. The doctors at the hospital claimed that the mother’s infected case spread the virus to her child since her pregnant period.

Wuhan Children Hospital doctor Zeng Lingkong has highlighted the issue of spreading from gravidas to their newborns. Following her, all of us have to realize this issue seriously as a warning.

Up to now, the newborn has been in a safe status. The doctors added that most of the newborns there don’t get in touch with the 2019-nCoV even though their mothers are infected with the virus. Earlier, a Vietnamese doctor has proved that coronavirus can spread from gravidas to their child based on scientific tests.

Following him, if the mothers infected with 2019-nCoV indirectly, they don’t need to worry immensely. As not many cases mother-baby transmission happens until date.
