Episode description

Are pregnant women at higher risk of getting Covid-19? Are they more susceptible to illnesses? Should they take different precautions? Can they pass the disease on the their unborn baby? Host Lindsay Aerts tackles these questions and more with Dr. Torri Metz, associate professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Utah. Dr. Metz is commissioning a nationwide study looking at the effects of having Covid-19 on birth outcomes. They'll also look at whether new healthcare practices for prenatal care, which were put in place due to the virus, are affecting births.
