Abstract :
In this article, we present a pregnant case suspected of COVID-19 with
underlying symptoms of respiratory distress; which was referred to Shohada-eTajrish Hospital. Due to the progressive decrease of O2 saturation, the medical
team decided to terminate the pregnancy to save the patient's life. Despite all
these efforts including pharmaceutical agents, the patient passed away.
