Abstract

During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, Public Health Scotland and the University of Edinburgh led the COVID-19 in Pregnancy in Scotland (COPS) study. COPS involved linking and analysing national vital events and health data sets held by Public Health Scotland to examine the impact of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus two (SARS-CoV-2) infection and COVID-19 vaccination in pregnancy on maternal and baby outcomes from conception to the postpartum/neonatal periods. COPS was administratively linked to the Early Pandemic Evaluation and Enhanced Surveillance of COVID-19 (EAVE II) study but had its own study data set.
