Abstract

The relation between COVID-19 and abortions has been a subject of controversy since the emergence of a virus COVID-19 ,with a positive SARS-CoV-2 test result have a higher risk of abortion, according to various state reports and case studies published during the epidemic. During influenza  virus infection, placental inflammation can cause, fetal development retardation and death. There was no convincing evidence of the virus being transmitted vertically from woman to fetus, which necessitates additional inquiry. Hospitals saw an inflow of COVID-19 patients as the epidemic expanded, as well as significant reduction in the time of everything from hospital beds to personal protective equipment (PPE).
