Table 4.

Sensitivity analyses on adherence to infection prevention measures by pregnancy and postpartum status

Self-reported infection prevention behaviour OR 95% CI p-value
Keeping distance from others both indoors and outdoors 0.84 0.62–1.12 0.235
Limiting social contacts 0.69 0.49–0.97 0.034
Avoiding using public transportation 0.84 0.66–1.08 0.166
Staying home when symptoms of a cold 0.68 0.49–0.93 0.017

Data from Q2. Pregnancy status was defined as pregnant during the pandemic versus postpartum (reference group). Odds ratios (ORs) were estimated using logistic regression with each adherence outcome as the dependent variable. OR < 1 indicates lower odds for pregnant participants compared with postpartum participants
