I don't want to find out what happens if it goes off, and so far, I haven't. But I'd say having that as outpatient surgery shows how concerned the doc was about Covid. But I've been fine since then. Have a monitor at my bedside for the doc to read the results and check on me. The waiting area for the pre-surgery was empty, only one other person back there. And the other person was my cardiologists patient too.
