Interim schedule for pregnant women and children during the COVID-19 pandemic

摘要

The World Health Organization declared coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) a global pandemic. Pregnant women, newborns, and children due for vaccinations still require care during the pandemic. Given that there is a need to reduce the number of visits to the clinic, and women and children and their caregivers might wish to reduce exposure to others, the timing and frequency of visits can be adjusted. Many health care providers are transitioning to virtual visits instead of in-person visits whenever possible. The goal of this guide is to propose an interim well-child and prenatal visit schedule that providers can use and adapt to their local settings.
