Unless cities make it VERY cheap (free) and easy (offering mobile testing, drive-thru, etc) to get tested, the majority of "mild" cases will just continue on their daily lives affecting other people.

Some people receiving death threats due to coronavirus fears
As coronavirus deaths increase, so do death threats.
He's the gentleman, age 65, who contracted COVID19 on Diamond Princess Cruise (Japan) who said that he felt fine and didn't even know he was sick or even infected.

At first I was picturing a bunch of potentially infected c-19 carriers walking into their local Quest branch to be tested along with all the regular blood/testing they do, but thankfully they're talking about offering the testing on specimens collected in hospital/healthcare settings.LabCorp makes coronavirus test available for ordering in U.S.

I think all school districts better start thinking of similar plans. I can already see all the schools in the tristate area (and beyond) implement something like this. Just cringing about how many commuters come into port authority / penn station / grand central and how far they travel on a DAILY basis.

They are playing with fire at this point. They have to realize the virus is not contained. Folks not showing symptoms but have most likely contracted the virus have been in the streets for a week or 2 at this point. God knows how many they've been in contact with. Put a pause to it now.
Shut down has to happen now. Nationwide. Clear out what is present and see what the rebound looks like.

[RTRS] 05 Mar - PENCE SAYS COAST GUARD DELIVERED CORONAVIRUS TESTS TO CRUISE SHIP DOCKED OFFSHORE NEAR SAN FRANCISCO - REUTERS

I have a feeling that Pence quote is taken out of context. If you read exactly what it says, it's true that we don't have enough tests TODAY to meet the anticipated demand. Those will need to be manufactured rapidly.
EDIT: I also just saw the interview between Trump and Hannity and whether you like him or not, what he really said is not what's being reported. Trump didn't dispute Tedros' claim that "3.4% of REPORTED covid-19 cases have died." What he said is that the actual death rate is much lower due to the large number of mild infections that are never reported. I think we all know this is actually true...
