Description of CME Course

As of April 2021, yet another worldwide wave of SARS-CoV-2 infections is threatening to bring new daily highs in the mortality associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. The recent emergency approvals of several vaccines and worldwide vaccination campaigns are bringing hope of an eventual containment coupled with a long road to recovery. A critical component of this recovery will be to understand and mitigate risk for the children of this pandemic. The generation born during the 1918 influenza pandemic experienced long-term consequences, including 15% lower high school graduation rates, increased cardiovascular morbidity, higher rates of mental illness in adulthood, and lower socioeconomic status, and died younger than individuals born in preceding and succeeding generations. The long-term consequences of maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnancy on future child health are yet to be understood.
