Test positive for Covid before surgery - is this going to affect my surgery?

tee_1010
I have my breast augmentation surgery scheduled in 23 days. I just tested positive for covid three days ago. Is this going to affect my surgery? Assuming I recover fine in the next week is it possible to test negative in 16 days?
