  ABSTRACT: Objectives: To bring out the clinical, biological, and therapeutic aspects of pregnant women and women in the post-partum infected by the SARS COVID-19 in the University hospital of Marrakesh. To study the vertical transmission of the virus if it exists, and the impact on the newborn. Methods: It is a prospective observational study on women infected by COVID-19 virus admitted in the gynecology obstetrics department of the University hospital of Marrakesh during the period between March 1st and July 15th. Data collection was insured thanks to a customized form containing the medical history, clinical criteria, biological and, radiological findings as well as the treatment and maternal and neo-natal outcomes. Results: The clinical, biological and radiological presentation of COVID-19 infection in pregnant and post-partum women doesn’t seem to be different from general population. Pregnant and post-partum women don’t seem to be more at risk to develop severe features of the disease. Vertical transmission via placenta is possible. COVID-19 infection may cause premature labor, premature rupture of membranes, preeclampsia or fetal distress.
