Singapore study sheds light on pregnant women infected with Covid-19

Friday, 18 Dec 2020 02:10 PM MYT

Five women had delivered by the time the study was published, and all their babies had antibodies without having been infected by the virus, although the researchers said it is not yet clear what level of protection this may offer.
