New research has pointed to the importance of keeping mothers and newborns together — even when a coronavirus infection is suspected or confirmed, according to the World Health Organization.
In many countries, when a mother has a confirmed or suspected case of COVID-19, her newborn is separated from her, which the world health agency says puts the newborns at a "higher risk of death and lifelong health complications." "This is especially the case in the poorest countries where the greatest number of preterm births and infant deaths occur," the WHO said in a news release.More Related News
