Rates of positive autism risk screenings at 16-30 months are not higher in children born during the #COVID19 pandemic, including those prenatally exposed to maternal #SARSCoV2 infection, this study’s findings suggest. ja.ma/4ebYIM5

Emerging data from studies like that of Finegold et al2 emphasize the extent to which COVID-19–related changes to a child’s postnatal environment can affect a wide array of neurocognitive and social-emotional outcomes. @DrMFirestein @ColumbiaMed @ColumbiaPsych

Our paper reporting on neurodevelopmental outcomes in infants exposed to SARS-CoV-2 in utero was the third most talked about article of 2022 in @JAMAPediatrics! We are excited to see what 2023 will bring 😊

From @COMBOstudy, @DrMFirestein led this thorough commentary on the pandemic’s effects on new moms and babies.
Bottom line: we see early signs of negative impact on both and need to invest in more research to prevent generational embedding of this worldwide stressor.
