Abstract
Since the appearance of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), scientists and physicians work together to find any solution to the current pandemic. Up till now, there is neither definite curative treatment nor vaccine to this infection. Pregnant women are a vulnerable category of population. In normal situation, they need special care. This care must be needed now to protect them and their fetuses. In this review, we highlighted the use of Convalescent Blood Plasma (CBP) in the treatment of pregnant women with COVID-19 infection. It is not new for us to use CBP in the treatment of viral infections as we used before in the treatment of SARS, MERS and other members of coronaviruses family and showed great results in the cure of the patients.
