They keep detecting virus fragments in sewage for large swathes of suburbs, sound the alarm for people in those areas to get tested, but the next thing you know that news is old news and never heard of again.
Also, don't forget that the limo guy who started all this was found out to have been infected only because he's mandated to get tested regularly due to his line of work, missed a couple of days, then was forced to get tested. If it was up to him, would he have voluntarily done it, even if he got sick? I don't think so.
Bottom line is, I don't buy that crap the Gov keeps peddling, that we're "safe" because all the current infections are from previously known ones, simply because I don't think they're looking hard enough.
