Background:
The complications of the SARS-CoV-2 infection and its COVID-19 disease on mothers and their
offspring are less known.
Objective:
The aim of this review was to determine the transmission, severity, complications of SARS-CoV-2 infection
during the pregnancy. This review showed the influence of COVID-19 disease on the neonatal neurogenesis. Owing to no
specific vaccines or medicines that were reported for the treatment of COVID-19 disease, this review suggested some control strategies like treatments (medicinal plants, antiviral therapy, cellular therapy, and immunotherapy), nutrition uptake, prevention, and recommendations.
Discussion:
This overview showed in severely states that SARS-CoV-2 infection during the early stage of pregnancy might
increase the risk of stress, panic, and anxiety. This disorder can disturb the maternal immune system, and thus causing a
neurodevelopmental disturbance. This hypothesis may be depending on the severity and intensity of the SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy. However, vertical transmission of SARS-CoV-2 from dams to their fetuses is absent until now.
Conclusion:
During this global pandemic disease, maintaining safety during pregnancy, vaginal delivery, and breastfeeding
may play a vital role in a healthy life for the offspring. Thus, international and national corporations should be continuing for perinatal management, particularly during the next pandemic or disaster time.
