Mixed-effects regression models accounted for hospital clustering using a robust sandwich estimator. Positive test occurred in the first 5 days after delivery. This analysis includes 6 newborns with a positive SARS-CoV-2 test result within the first week of life (5 positive results during the birth hospitalization, and 1 positive result after discharge on day 5 of life).
