The study shows 99 per cent of pregnant women who are taken to hospital with Covid are unvaccinated and they appear to have more severe symptoms.
Across the UK, the number of new daily cases has fallen slightly to just over 29,500, while a further 68 deaths have been recorded.
In England, the R number, which shows how far the disease is being transmitted, is also fractionally lower than last week.
