In Germany they are tracking down clusters. As a random person you won't get tested, unless you visited a risky region, had contact with an infected person or your doctor orders a test for you. As a German, this strategy makes sense to me.

Considering the shortage of reagentia for these tests, that definitely makes sense.

Belgium only does tests on people who have recently been in regions at risk (China, Italy) or who have symptoms of pneumonia.

200 infected to date, zero deaths (so far).

Yep, that’s my understanding too and it makes perfect sense.
