Current evidence indicates that COVID-19 does not appear to directly impact newborns. Few novel coronavirus infections have been reported in newborns, and these were almost uniformly asymptomatic. The few that had symptoms were reported to have mild illness.\r\n<h2><strong>There is no evidence of vertical mother-to-newborn transmission during pregnancy or via breastfeeding.<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\r\n<h2>Indirect adverse effects of COVID-19 on pregnancy and newborns<\/h2>\r\nWhereas the <strong>direct effects of COVID-19 on pregnancy and newborns are minimal, indirect adverse effects are becoming increasingly apparent<\/strong> and important areas of concern. These include potential disruptions of routine maternal and newborn health (MNH) care that is essential for the health and survival of mothers and newborns. Countries\u2019 responses to the pandemic \u2013 such as social distancing measures \u2013 can pose threats to continuing best practices by health care providers, as well as to home caregiver practices that are essential to newborn health and survival. Leading <strong>examples of these threats to best MNH practices<\/strong> include:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>separation of mothers and newborns instead of promoting immediate skin-to-skin contact and rooming in, in facilities, and<\/li>\r\n \t<li>immediate and exclusive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/issue\/breastfeeding-and-feeding-of-small-and-sick-newborns\/\">breastfeeding<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/issue\/kangaroo-mother-care\/\">Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC)<\/a> for preterm and small babies.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nThus, pandemic mitigation by social distancing should not result in unintended harm to mothers and their newborns.\r\n\r\nThere is also a risk to mothers and babies that pandemic responses limit needed psychosocial support to mothers during pregnancy, delivery, and in the postpartum period. Additionally, the economic toll of the pandemic response poses serious risks to many families \u2013 especially mothers and newborns \u2013 living in poverty or near-poverty. Policies and programs must recognize and take steps to prevent or ameliorate these important risks which may otherwise be overlooked. These can include food insecurity, loss of livelihoods, misinformation, and lockdown-induced social isolation and loss of vital community\/family support.\r\n\r\nThe World Health Organization (WHO) and partners continue to monitor the evidence and provide guidance accordingly.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=\"stretch_row\" css=\".vc_custom_1452696349804{margin-top:
