摘要
Nigeria has a high maternal mortality rate, yet there is wide variation in the proportion of births by caesarean section between zones, states, and cities within Nigeria. This review examines the pattern of the COVID-19 pan-demic and the impact of mitigation measures on women's health in Nigeria. The combined impact of COVID-19 and conflicts on maternal healthcare and access to obstetric care, as well as the availability of obstetric anaes-thesia in Nigeria, are discussed. There is a vicious cycle, intensified by unwanted pregnancy, abortion, and pre-ventable maternal death.
