My apologies if I misunderstood your thinking in your post. I’ve been reading for weeks and when you see arguments in the articles about accuracy they seem to all just want to complain about the fact that some will be missed instead of focusing on the fact additional testing can help reduce transmission rate.

The current PCR testing is way to slow, 4-7 days on average to get results, to lower transmission rate especially with an estimated 40% of people being asymptomatic. So even if some may argue correctly that a negative test may give some false security, we shouldn’t disregard that it clearly could help drive down transmission rate, which hasn’t been accomplished successfully except for small periods of time. Those tested should still exercise social distancing and mask wearing.
