CIN3 progression to invasive (potentially harmful) cancer takes months or years. Three weeks will make absolutely no difference. It can be frustrating to wait in this situation, but please try not to worry: no harm will come!

You are OK putting it of for 3 weeks and as far as we know Covid will not increase your cancer likelihood. Good Luck
