Two corrections are required for a December 2021 Special Report from the National Institutes of Health defining placental infection by SARS-Co-2.
In the byline, a middle initial in the name of the third author, Roberto Romero, MD, should be removed.
A sentence in the Introduction (page 593.e1, column 2) misstated the source of 2 cited studies on placental infection: “Recent reports from the United Kingdom found second-trimester miscarriage and stillbirth associated with presumed placental SARS-CoV-2 infection, placentitis, and specifically the B.1.1.7 variant.10,11” Both studies emerged from Ireland.
These corrections have been made in the online edition at ajog.org.
