description COVID-19 pandemic outbreak had officially started on 11 March 2020 according to the World Health Organization. In Romania the first case of COVID-19 was documented on 26th of February. Ploiesti Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital is one of the biggest mono-specialty units from Romania that was designated to deal with COVID-19 infected pregnant women. We retrospectively analyzed seven pregnant women infected with SARS-CoV-2 who gave birth during the 1st July and 30thNovember 2020. The median age of pregnancy was 39 weeks. Three of the childbearing women presented rupture membranes at hospital admission and four gave birth by cesarean section (C-section). The women infected with SARS-CoV-2 had a good evolution, vertical transmission of the virus did not occur, measures to prevent mother-to-child transmission were applied. Apgar score was 9 for all new-born babies and they all tested negative for SARS-CoV-2. There were no maternal deaths. One new born baby was preterm but didn't present low birth weight or low Apgar score. Applying cesarean section as a method of birth did not influence vertical transmission. There is no evidence if it is necessary to anticipate the time of birth. We believe it is recommended to individualize each case according to the experience of the obstetrician and the severity of the maternal infection.
