description INTRODUCTION: Human species is confronting with a gigantic global COVID-19 pandemic. Initially, it was observed in Wuhan, China, and the COVID-19 cases spread across the globe with lightning speed and resulted in the 21st century pandemic. If scientific reports are taken care of, it is noteworthy that this virus possesses more specific characteristics due to its structure. The distinctive structure has a higher binding affinity with angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) protein, and this is used as an access point to gain access to hosts. METHODS: A complete literature search was conducted using PubMed, Google Scholar, SciFinder, and deep-diving Google Search using keywords such as "Pregnancy, COVID-19, Newborn, Fetus, Coronavirus 2019, Neonate, Pregnant women, and vertical transmission". RESULT AND DISCUSSION: The SARS-CoV-2 virus is unlike its former analogs: SARS-CoV, and MERS-CoV in 2002 and 2012, respectively, or anything mankind has faced earlier concerning viciousness, global spread, and gravity of a causative agent. The current review has delved into articles published in various journals worldwide including the latest studies on the impact of COVID-19 on pregnant women and neonates and has discussed complications and challenges, psychological health, immunological response, vertical transmission, concurrent disorders, vaccine debate, management recommendations, recent news of the approval of COVID-19 vaccine for 6 months and older babies, and future perspectives.
