數(shù)據(jù)開始為懷孕和流行病提供一些答案

Pregnant women had mountains of concern at the beginning of the pandemic, and doctors didn't have many answers. Now, months after COVID-19 began sweeping across the globe, new studies and CDC reports are out.

在流行病初期，孕婦們有很多擔憂，醫(yī)生們也沒有多少答案。現(xiàn)在，在COVID-19病毒開始席卷全球數(shù)月后，新的研究和疾病預(yù)防控制中心(CDC)的報告出爐了。

While there is still much that is unknown, the picture is beginning to be more clear.

盡管仍有許多未知，但情況正開始變得更加清楚。

Dr. Denise Jamieson, chair of the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics at Emory Healthcare and member of the COVID-19 task force at the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, tells NPR's Sacha Pfeiffer that the recent findings "should be somewhat reassuring" to pregnant women and their families.

埃默里醫(yī)療保健公司婦產(chǎn)科主任、美國婦產(chǎn)科學(xué)院COVID-19專責(zé)小組成員丹尼斯·杰米森博士告訴NPR的薩夏·法伊芙，最近的發(fā)現(xiàn)“應(yīng)該在某種程度上讓孕婦和她們的家人放心”。

"However, I still think there are many reasons to be vigilant about COVID-19," she says. "It's still really important that pregnant women take measures to protect themselves, and it's also really important that pregnant women have access to COVID-19 vaccines as soon as they're available."

“然而，我仍然認為有許多理由對COVID-19保持警惕，”她說。“孕婦采取措施保護自己仍然非常重要，孕婦盡快獲得COVID-19疫苗也非常重要。”

Here are excerpts from her interview on All Things Considered, in which Jamieson discusses how COVID-19 can affect pregnancies and newborns.

以下是她對《綜合考慮》的采訪節(jié)選。在采訪中，杰米森討論了COVID-19如何影響懷孕和新生兒。

There was a fear that if a pregnant woman was COVID-positive, she might pass that along to her baby, either in utero or during childbirth. Do we know if that happens?

人們擔心，如果孕婦是冠狀病毒陽性，她可能會在子宮內(nèi)或分娩時將病毒傳染給她的嬰兒。我們知道會不會發(fā)生這種情況?

[The virus that causes COVID-19] seems to be able to cross the placenta and infect fetuses during pregnancy. However, the good news is that this doesn't seem to happen very often.

[導(dǎo)致COVID-19的病毒]似乎能夠在懷孕期間通過胎盤感染胎兒。然而，好消息是，這種情況似乎并不經(jīng)常發(fā)生。

And those babies are generally OK, despite being infected?

那些被感染的嬰兒一般都沒事吧?

For the most part, the babies, yes, have done well.

在很大程度上，這些嬰兒，是的，做得很好。

There were some women wondering if they should avoid getting pregnant during the pandemic. Would you advise that? To wait until it's over to try and have a baby?

有一些婦女想知道，在流行病期間，她們是否應(yīng)該避免懷孕。你能給點建議嗎?等到一切都結(jié)束了再生孩子?

I would not recommend to delay in pregnancy. I think women can take measures to avoid COVID during pregnancy and to protect themselves during pregnancy and when to get pregnant is such a personal and complicated decision, and this pandemic will probably be with us for a while. I would not advise delaying pregnancy solely on the basis of the COVID pandemic.

我不建議推遲懷孕。我認為女性可以采取措施在懷孕期間避免COVID，在懷孕期間保護自己，什么時候懷孕是個人的復(fù)雜的決定，這種流行病可能會伴隨我們一段時間。我不建議僅僅因為COVID大流行而推遲懷孕。

Have you found that the experience of being pregnant or having a baby during the pandemic has compromised or reduced the joy of pregnancy and delivery for any women?

你有沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)在流行病期間懷孕或生孩子的經(jīng)歷已經(jīng)損害或降低了婦女懷孕和分娩的樂趣?

I hope it hasn't substantially reduced the joy of having a baby, but I do worry that with restrictions on visitation in the hospital, and then also the social isolation after women go home from the hospital, I do think it's fundamentally changed the experience of having a baby. ... I look forward to a day when the pandemic is over, and we have a safe, available and effective vaccine, and we don't have to social distance.

我希望這并沒有大大降低生孩子的樂趣，但我確實擔心醫(yī)院對探視的限制，以及女性從醫(yī)院回家后的社會隔離，我認為這從根本上改變了生孩子的體驗。我期待著有一天流行病結(jié)束，我們有了安全、可用和有效的疫苗，我們不必與社會保持距離。
