There are about 300,000 births every month in the United States. That won’t change as Covid-19 continues its march across the country. Health systems are doing the best they can under immensely difficult circumstances to treat very sick patients, stem the spread of the virus, and keep those on the front lines healthy. Health providers are balancing life-and-death decisions on many levels, from considering universal do-not-intubate or do-not-resuscitate orders for severely ill Covid-19 patients to rationing ventilator care.
