In the era of COVID-19, pregnant and postpartum women, an already vulnerable group, are facing unforeseen and compounding stressful events with reduced social protections. We argue that to prevent harmful consequences that may surpass the effects of the crisis itself for pregnant women and their families, it is imperative to prioritize maintaining formal and informal sources of social support for mothers in proposed infection control policies.
在 COVID-19 时代,孕妇和产后妇女这一已经脆弱的群体,面临着社会保护减少的情况下意料之外且复杂的压力事件。我们认为,为了防止对孕妇及其家庭产生可能超过危机本身影响的有害后果,在拟议的感染控制政策中,优先考虑维持母亲的正式和非正式社会支持来源是当务之急。
