If the omicron strain is more flu like than delta.....with less need for hospitalization and less incidences of death....why the "seemingly" panic to get tested?

The demand during the regular covid strain and then the delta strain during 2021 did not seem to result in such demand?!
For purposes of "empathy"! No man (woman) is an island, therefore, if you are asymptomatic and have a viral load, then you MAY (?) want to NOT visit people in The Villages ( ALL are old) and KILL or hospitalize them. Just basic, "do unto others and etc"! So, you get tested.
