Pregnant women in the third trimester are at the highest risk. Contracting COVID‐19 increases the complications. Hence, it is critical for pregnant women, especially during the third trimester, with slightest COVID‐19 symptoms to visit as soon as possible. Early diagnosis considerably contributes to saving both the mother and the fetus.
