  The article discusses a study by J. Perlman and colleagues which shared their experience with 31 newborns born to mothers with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) over a three-week period at their center in New York City. Topics include vertical transmission during pregnancy, guidance on location of newborn care and breastfeeding for mothers with COVID-19 from selected organizations, and critical and time-sensitive needs for research around neonatal care and outcomes related to COVID-19.
