Mother and child transmission: pregnancy, birth and after
This path distinguishes the transmission of a mother-to-child infection from the way the mother acquired it. It may occur during pregnancy, at birth or after depending on the agent. A maternal exposure does not prove an infection of the foetus.
The distinctions that change reading
Screening
Previous results and specific markers are required to interpret an examination.
Prevention
Pre-pregnancy vaccination, prenatal follow-up, food prevention and medical care respond to different situations.
Practical issues
Are all these infections going through breastfeeding?
No. Periods and mechanisms differ. A sheet classified here does not mean a transmission by all the maternal-infant mechanisms.
Before interpreting a sheet
Find the agent's name, the indicated routes and the primary source. Then check the date and territory of this source. A section helps to compare; it does not determine a person's medical conduct.
