The incidence of mother-to-newborn SARS-CoV-2 transmission appears low and may be associated with biological and social factors.

However, data are limited on the factors associated with neonatal clinical or viral testing outcomes.

We ascertain the percentage of neonates who were born to mothers with positive SARS-CoV-2 test results during the birth hospitalization, the clinical and sociodemographic factors associated with neonatal test result positivity, and the clinical and virological outcomes for newborns during hospitalization and 30 days after discharge.

This multicenter cohort study included 11 academic or community hospitals in Massachusetts and mother-neonate dyads whose delivery and discharge occurred between March 1, 2020, and July 31, 2020.

Eligible dyads were identified at each participating hospital through local COVID-19 surveillance and infection control systems.

Neonates were born to mothers with positive SARS-CoV-2 test results within 14 days before to 72 hours after delivery, and neonates were followed up for 30 days after birth hospital discharge.
