Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has infected more than 2 million people, caused thousands of deaths, and become a worldwide pandemic. To effectively block its transmission, all possible transmission routes must be determined. SARS-CoV-2 has been identified previously in throat and anal swabs, urine, and tears.1 However, little has been reported about SARS-CoV-2 in the female genital tract, which may provide direct evidence on sexual and mother-to-child transmission. This study aimed to determine whether SARS-CoV-2 exists in the lower female genital tract (including vaginal fluid and cervical exfoliated cells).
