Summary:Background Pregnant women with influenza are more likely to have complications, but information on infant outcomes is limited. Methods Five state/local health departments collected data on outcomes of infants born to pregnant women with 2009 H1N1 influenza reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from April to December 2009.
