The world may be in the middle of an unprecedented crisis, but people are still having babies.

With 250 babies born every minute, it’s safe to assume that more than 12 million new lives have started since the world locked down about five weeks ago. And while many anxious parents probably wish they could delay the birth of their child until Covid-19 recedes, that’s not an option. So hospitals, medical bodies, and labor and delivery staff have adapted their practices to allow women to give birth as safely as possible in the middle of this pandemic.
