If you don't test a patient that's positive and put them with other patients and unprotected health personnel you'll infect others and significantly weaken the hospital's ability to treat patients. If you don't test a patient that's negative and put them with covid patients they risk getting infected, taking up an extra ICU spot, and might die. Would you want one of your loved ones in that position?

What would change in public policy with more randomized tests?
