Abstract
The impact of COVID-19 on maternal and neonatal outcomes at a military treatment facility in the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic provides guidance for optimizing perinatal health care. Vertical transmission of COVID-19 is low and routine testing of asymptomatic neonates of positive mothers may not be necessary. COVID-19 infections should not be an indication for cesarean birth and are not associated with neonatal deaths or NICU admission.
