Procedure; Human Factors
While preparing for departure we were interrupted in the middle of our pre-departure brief several times as a result of not having enough time to complete all required checks to be ready for all other work groups checking in before departure. Scheduled hotel pick up time put us at the airport right at 45 minutes. However; because of the requirement to accomplish COVID temperature check; and health screening; we arrived at aircraft with not enough time to complete all the International/Oceanic checks before the different team members that need to check with us to be ready to depart (i.e.: gate agent; ramp; flight attendants etc.) began to check in.  Especially; when all other work groups were ready to depart 10 minutes before departure time and we were trying to catch up with our checks.This time constraint created a significant threat as every time we got interrupted there was the possibility of missing something in addition to the extra mind workload of having to shift attention and re-focus.
Air carrier Captain reported numerous interruptions caused distractions during pre-departure checks and caused concern over following published procedures.
