   Resumen

   Este documento proporciona orientación para las personas que están embarazadas y amamantando durante la pandemia de COVID-19. El Departamento de Salud Pública de California actualizará esta guía a medida que se disponga de nueva información.

   Embarazo: En base a lo que sabemos en este momento, los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC) afirman que “las personas embarazadas tienen un mayor riesgo de padecer enfermedades graves por COVID-19 y de morir, en comparación con las personas no embarazadas. Además, las personas embarazadas con COVID-19 podrían tener un mayor riesgo de sufrir otros resultados adversos, como el parto prematuro (dar a luz antes de las 37 semanas). Es especialmente importante que las personas embarazadas, y quienes conviven con ellas, se protejan de contraer COVID-19”.

   Lactancia: Los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC) y la Academia de Pediatría afirman que los padres con COVID-19 pueden dar el pecho. Al amamantar, se deben tomar precauciones para reducir el riesgo de transmitir COVID-19 a su bebé.
