Pregnant in a Pandemic
This object is a webpage from the Mass General Hospital website. This is the Obstetrics and Gynecology page. It is an update for all their patients. The title of this article is “Mass General Remains Safe, Ready for Expectant Families During COVID-19". It was uploaded in May of 2020. I choose to read this because I am planning to deliver my baby in February at Mass General, which will be mostly likely still during this pandemic. This article highlights the precautions being taken during Pandemic for mothers delivering at Mass General. -

Pregnant in a Pandemic
I uploaded this flyer. It shares the need for masks and other protective equipment in fighting against the corona virus, especially for the population of pregnant women and new moms. The website has campaigns to aid in providing masks to moms and moms-to be in the Chicago-area. They do this in hopes to ensure these moms feel safe and secure during their pregnancy amidst a pandemic. Although I am not in that region of the country, I can understand the campaign for women in this category across the country and the globe. I think it important for historians to look back on this time in history and reflect the needs of certain demographics during this time. -

Pregnant in a Pandemic
I uploaded his page I found because it is an updated source of data for pregnant women during the current pandemic. The page shows total reported Covid cases of Pregnant women in the U.S. which is currently at 44,183. Along with the total deaths which is at 57 currently. It also provides other graphs and statistics on this demographic. This is very important data that historians can once day use when studying this time period.
