Study: COVID in Pregnancy Linked to Autism, Delays

**Summary:**A new study explores the potential risks of COVID-19 infection during pregnancy on children's neurodevelopment. Out of 861 pregnant women who contracted COVID-19, 140 had children diagnosed with neurodevelopmental conditions by age three. While the study doesn't prove causation, it suggests a link between maternal COVID-19 and developmental delays. The research also raises questions about COVID-19 vaccination and pregnancy, with experts encouraging vaccination to potentially lower risks. However, more research is needed to fully understand the impact of vaccination on neurodevelopment. The Daily News Now! - Every city. Every story. AI Powered. Hosted on Acast.
