Hospital infection control measures against COVID-19 may come into conflict with patients' need for support. In Norway, some hospitals have restricted access for partners of women giving birth. We investigated the incidence rate of SARS-CoV-2 among birthing parents compared to similarly aged women and men in the general population; and the additional risk posed by allowing partners in. Birthing parents often shared infection status and had a slightly lower incidence rate than the general population in the peripartum period. They should not be considered a high-risk group for SARS-CoV-2 infections.
针对新冠病毒的医院感染控制措施可能与患者对支持的需求产生冲突。在挪威，一些医院限制了分娩女性伴侣的探视。我们调查了分娩父母中新冠病毒的发病率，并与普通人群中年龄相仿的女性和男性进行比较；以及允许伴侣探视所带来的额外风险。分娩父母通常具有相同的感染状况，且在围产期的发病率略低于普通人群。他们不应被视为新冠病毒感染的高危人群。
