My wife was to undergo a surgery. Doctor got covid test. Got test positive first on 10th July and later on 4th Aug i. e. 25 days later. Never ever found a single symptom. Please advise- is she infectious still now. Should get antibody test igg now to know that it was the old infection recovered now. Please give any advice to follow now.

If RTPCR swab test for COVID19 is positive than she is infectious to others and so till the results are negative she will have to postpone the surgery
