You're assuming that all cases are Coronavirus.

People will continue to get the Flu, Colds, HIV / AIDs even throughout this whole shebang. We need to know COVID19 cases specifically, to know if our lockdown methodology is being effective.

For that you just need to test in hospitals.
USA doesn't have enough tests even for that. I'm proposing we at least test the cases that reach the hospital stage.
