The third coronavirus outbreak (SARS-CoV-2) after SARS-COV in 2003 in China and MERSCOV in 2012 in the Middle East, which occurred in December 2019 in China, spread rapidly to all countries of the world bringing the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare a pandemic on March 11, 2020. This condition, in addition to its low lethality in young people, remains a psychosis for the general population. Current data on COVID-19 and pregnancy have evolved significantly, so the outcome of Covid-19 pregnancies is unpredictable and varies from woman to woman. Through the first 7 observed cases of COVID-19 during pregnancy for 2170 births at the Teaching Hospital of Angre during 1 year, from April 2020 to March 2021, the authors wanted to expose the outcome of these pregnancies. The management was carried out in collaboration with the Department of Infectious and Tropical Diseases (DITD), we observed: 1 spontaneous abortion, 2 low-birth by induction, 2 cesarean sections, 2 gestants died in a context of acute respiratory distress (1 during pregnancy and the other postpartum).
