ST. LOUIS – Next week Fox 2’s traffic reporter Molly Rose will join the quickly growing number of Americans working from home in hopes of slowing the spread of the coronavirus.
As most people are starting to feel the stress from this rapidly changing situation, Molly understands the many uncertainties around the COVID-19 pandemic may be more difficult for pregnant women. She is 23 weeks pregnant.
During her time reporting from home, she will be doing a new segment on Fox 2 News in the Morning on how Covid-19 is changing pregnancy and birth. She will speak to medical experts, doctors and local women.
It is currently unknown if pregnant women have a greater chance of getting sick from COVID-19 than the general public, according to the CDC. However, Molly’s doctor suggests staying at home as much as possible, and practicing social distancing is recommended.
