| Abstract: | Current literature and clinical guidelines do not include pregnant women as an a priori risk group for COVID‐19. However, a gender vision of health begs the question: Why are pregnant women not considered a risk group for COVID‐19? The answer is clear: historically, most community scientific studies have not considered female gender, or pregnancy as a state, to be a focus of special interest or effort. Unfortunately, this bias seems to be maintained in the COVID‐19 epidemic: most current guidelines for diagnosing SARS‐CoV‐2 infection during pregnancy apply the same standard criteria as for the general population. |
