>>The medical industry drives me nuts with their symptomatic approach to things.<< I think right now you are seeing some risk/reward driven comments that have a significant political/economic influence. Most scientists would want more screening, sequencing, and data in general, but the earlier false positives in Surrey really muddied the waters and pushed the screening toward testing later rather than earlier. The fever checks are pretty cosmetic. I believe that the number of SARS cases detected worldwide by fever checks at airports remains at zero (I think 2 were discovered via medical questionnaires filled out by travelers - I think that over 30 million were subjected to questionnaires and fever checks at airports).
