Not monitoring yet but fwiw I've always been the only patient in the waiting room at a time - only saw a nurse take a mask break at the front desk from time to time but they always put it back on when approaching/approached by a patient.

Also, no partners can come for anything at GW (still) besides pregnancy ultrasounds. Not allowed in during monitoring, IUIs, retrievals, or transfers.

also, no more showing up and standing in line. you'll get an appointment time and need to show up within 15 minutes of that time. then you're called back individually for blood draw/US.

How do they do monitoring since social distancing became a thing?


Never more than 4-5 people during 2021-2022 period. All masked up and social distanced. Also, they are taking in far fewer patients now.


wow- CFA has had zero social distancing and frequently standing room only during covid. there are masks, but i've witnessed people take them off to sneeze, staff not wear them above their nose, etc.
