a

COVID-19 = coronavirus disease 2019; CT = computed tomography; ICU = intensive care unit; qRT-PCR = quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction; SARS-CoV-2 = severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.

b

Note that certain parameters were not evaluated or reported in all patients, so the denominators used for calculations represent only the numbers for which data are available.

c

Thirty-three of 185 patients (17.8%) were still pregnant at the end of this study; therefore, rates of complications occurring in late pregnancy or close to delivery, such as preeclampsia, might have been underestimated.
