Helpful and reassuring to those who are pregnant during these troubled times, ITV1’s This Morning show broadcast this advice piece for expectant mothers:
As the UK’s coronavirus death toll hits 55, with 1,543 confirmed cases, we’re speaking to one member of the This Morning family, Dr Zoe, who’s isolating at home. And with pregnant women now seen as more vulnerable, we’re joined in the studio by Dr Sara, who is expecting, and Dr Larissa to give us the latest.

The advice generally also applies to pregnant women: wash your hands, don’t touch your face and practice social distancing.
This was also increased to include no unnecessary gatherings, by Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
Dr Zoe – who is self isolating – expressed her frustration that she did not actually know she had had the virus, which meant she could not be sure that she was therefore immune when she finishes her period of isolation and recovery.
