Early life factors and COVID-19 infection in England: A prospective analysis of UK Biobank participants.


ABSTRACT: This study aims to examine whether maternal smoking, birth weight, birth month and breastfeeding are associated with COVID-19 infection and hospitalisation. Maternal smoking was positively associated with COVID-19 infection. Breastfeeding was negatively associated with COVID-19 infection. The odds of being hospitalised due to COVID-19 were higher among those who had lower birthweight and mothers who were smoking during pregnancy.
