Thanks for the link! He says that there have been door to door testing of temperatures, and I'd nitpick by saying that's not quite the same thing as testing everyone for the virus, but it is better coverage than I had realised.

Surprised! I worry about unintended consequences. During an epidemic, officials visit every home! Potentially spreading the virus unintentionally thru healthcare personnel. Don't know if I'd open the door to somebody who admits having visited thousands of people before getting to me...

Yeah he's rolling with what he's got. The antibody studies that come at the tail of these things would be definitive.
