Will there be certain surgeries without anesthesia due to covid-19?

While elective surgeries may be restricted or canceled, anesthesia and/or sedation depending on the type of surgery would not be withheld secondary to COVID 19 alone.
Don't believe so. Only surgeries in office bases could be done with local anesthesia only.
