I think what they're telling people is to only get tested when you have cause for concern, symptoms or not
The question, or rather the change is what constitutes a valid cause for concern. They were asking for as many people as possible to get tested when they were missing their targets, so if you had a sick family member might as well get tested because maybe you are the asymptomatic person that gave it to them. If you wanted to visit a LTC facility, get tested first. But back then capacity wasn't an issue.
I'm glad they are talking about doing an online booking, that seems like something that should have been set up a long time ago. Long lines now is fine but come winter it will get really rough.
