It also says that if her PCR is positive, or if anyone in the home tests positive before her op, the entire household must self-isolate for 10 days. The op will then be rescheduled for a later date.

A lady from the hospital called today.
"You were told to isolate as a household from 1st January, after the patient has been to the local testing centre for a PCR test that same day.
This has now been modified under new advice. The entire household must isolate from 8am on 21st December, until 2 days after the patient's hospital appointment on 5th January. Do not go to work, do not leave your home, do not accept visitors into your home".
I explained that she has an urgent cardiac scan on 21st December.
"I shall consult with my seniors, and get back to you tomorrow morning".
18 day's of isolation, I'd better get some shopping done, as there are no home delivery slots anytime before mid January.
