An EKG and blood work doesn't guarantee your chest pain isn't a heart attack. But they are reasonable steps to assess for the presence of it. A negative CT doesn't guarantee you don't have appendicitis.Your second sentence is the point I was making. It doesn't guarantee you don't have COVID, so what's the point? It's just a false sense of security.
Now, whether everyone should undergo testing is another question, or only those with symtpoms.
