Doesn't mean you can go around and do anything you want, because it doesn't protect you from people who are infected. Even if you decided to take a personal risk, knowing you won't infect others, who is going to believe you?
There is no way to track down the millions of people who may have come in contact with the 200,000+ people infected in that area. Testing sounds great on the surface, but it is of little use in stopping a pandemic that has spread this far.
