This is a very interesting finding. I am wondering what additional factor was responsible for increasing the risk for black pregnant women in the conclusion. Since the start of the COVID pandemic, Africa recorded the least infections, hospitalization requiring mechanical ventilation, and even death. is there a chance that black pregnant women lack access to quality pre and antenatal care due to lack of health insurance? is there a link between poverty and pregnancy outcomes?
I advise further investigation for a better conclusion
Thank you
