We recognize that this guidance might be subject to change in the future when further knowledge will be acquired about the COVID-19 pandemic, its perinatal transmission, and clinical characteristics of cases of neonatal SARS-CoV-2 infection. ./cache/cord-285111-qjclp51i.txt ./txt/cord-285111-qjclp51i.txt
