Abstract
Respiratory illnesses due to respiratory virus infections disproportionately impact pregnant individuals and their infants, leading to significant morbidity and mortality globally. Data describing the incidence and impact of these infections in pregnancy is sparse and more common for influenza and now severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 with less data available on other respiratory virus infections in pregnancy. This lack of data is a result of limited prospective surveillance and issues surrounding the calculations of seroprevalence, as well as disproportionately low funding for reproductive health research. In this review article, we aimed to summarize available data on respiratory virus infections in pregnancy and identify gaps in the published literature.
