You would have to do this every day, too. Getting tested doesn't mean you are not exposed on the way home that day, or the way back to work. Also, what if you wanted to go to multiple places in the same day? You would have to be tested n-times, as you could have been infected going from one business to the other.

What I do not hear people talking about is this: Getting tested once is not enough. If you do not have COVID-19 today, it doesn't mean you are not going to have it tomorrow. The only test that can tell you that is an antibody test. Also, we don't even know yet (for sure, anyway) if people can be re-infected.
