As compared with nonpregnant women, pregnant women are more severely affected
by infections with some organisms, including influenza virus, hepatitis E virus (HEV),
herpes simplex virus (HSV), and malaria parasites. The evidence is more limited for
organisms that cause coccidioidomycosis, measles, smallpox, and varicella (Table 1).
The threshold for diagnostic evaluation, as well as hospitalization and treatment,
may be lower for pregnant women than for other patients, and this factor may bias
some of the reports of increased disease severity.
