    With the flood of Omicron, just wanted to get reports of adverse pregnancy outcomes.  Anybody seeing placental insufficiency developing in any of these infections?

    It is too early to know if omicron has the same effect as delta. We have seen placental insufficiency and placentomegally with the delta variant. These patients often develop FGR or more acutely present with decreased FM and abnormal fetal monitoring requiring delivery.
