Description
Néstor Dicuatro and co-authors published a 2024 study of immunity to a childhood virus in pregnant women in one Argentine city, Córdoba, and how often the virus strikes in pregnancy. The virus, parvovirus B19, can pass to the unborn child and cause grave harm, a swollen head condition or a stillbirth. Immunity from a past infection blocks the pass. How widespread that immunity runs varies by country.
The team took over three hundred cases from one maternity ward over two years. Blood tests found the immunity in two of three women. Its share did not tie to age, past births, children at home, or signs in mother or baby. One in ten of those with signs carried an active infection. All such infections came with anemia, low blood. One came with the swollen-head harm. A third of the group still lacks the immunity, the conclusion warns.
