{"doi":"10.3389/fviro.2022.908471","title":"Editorial: Translational Virology in Pregnancy","abstract":"Viral pandemics, like the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), are becoming more common and disproportionately impact the health of pregnant individuals and their fetuses. Recently, the probability of an extreme epidemic similar in intensity to the 1918 \"Spanish influenza\" with roughly 32 million deaths was estimated at 1.9% annually (1). For an individual born in 2000, this estimate translates to a 38% lifetime probability of experiencing an extreme epidemic by 2020. This probability estimate was expected to increase up to three-fold due to human-environment interactions, disease emergence from zoonotic reservoirs, and climate change (1). Depending on the virus, an infection during pregnancy may impart risk for more severe maternal disease, preterm birth, preeclampsia, stillbirth, fetal congenital anomalies and/or a longterm risk for neuropsychiatric disease in the children (2-9). This Research Topic includes scientific manuscripts broadly covering viral infections in pregnancy and their impact on pregnancy outcome and the maternal-placental-fetal immune response. Here, we summarize the articles included in this Research Topic and their importance to the field of translational virology in pregnancy.","journal":"Frontiers in Virology","year":2022,"id":308816,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":0,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.9647,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2022-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":373832,"name":"Vikki M.
