Abstract
Pregnant women with coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) are at risk of severe morbidity and mortality. With 934 deaths, the maternal mortality ratio (MMR) for Mexico in 2020 was 46.6 per 100 000 live births. COVID-19 was the leading cause of maternal mortality (202 deaths). Respiratory causes represented 31% (286/934) of maternal deaths in 2020, compared to 5% from 2011-2019 [1]. Fortunately, the Mexican government launched a universal vaccination program for pregnant women on May 11, 2021 [2].
