A 37-year-old woman has died of Covid-19 eight days after giving birth, sparking calls for the government to take further measures to protect “terrified” pregnant women across the UK. Organisations supporting pregnant women said the deaths had sent shockwaves through the half a million pregnant women in the UK and accused the government of failing to give clear guidance to protect expectant mothers. If you still have a high temperature, stay at home until your temperature returns to normal. If you have symptoms of coronavirus, use the NHS 111 coronavirus service to find out what to do. “We have asked for clear government guidance on health and safety protections for pregnant women, without result,” said Bragg.
