>If there was a massive government initiative to manufacture such tests and subsidize them so that everyone got them every day this pandemic could be effectively halted in very short order, even without a vaccine.
Provably false, since over the past 10 months we've seen people all along the way going to parties, restaurants, rallies, airline flights...all after having tested positive. Mooks and celebrities, it hasn't mattered.
Your false assumption is that strangers care whether anybody around them dies a painful and lonely death. That's before you even get to the practicality of isolating people who test positive, or to isolate themselves, especially among science disbelievers, Christian congregations, and 2nd Amendment activists.
