I'm a patient at a (physical) rehab place, and my case manager is expecting. With COVID-19, any gifts like baby clothes seem too germy, and the best I can think of is a gift card that she can sanitize. Better than paper cash, and we don't know her well enough to know what she needs.

Clothes put in a plastic bag? The virus lasts, at most, a few days on fabric, and if the mother is out worried she can wash them.

If you do buy clothes, coordinate with others to get clothes for various sizes/ages. But cash and a suggestion of clothes is probably better anyway.
