Abstract
Current pre-operative testing protocols consisting primarily of questionnaires and RT-PCR resulted in zero cases of COVID in this cohort. It is possible that COVID-19 restrictions and high proportion of patients cocooning preoperatively were factors in ensuring a low rate of COVID-19 post-operatively.
