This is the confusion.How bad are the PCR tests we're using in the US? That seems really bad and there would be no way to stop the spread by testing.
This LabCorp PCR test looks like it has 100% sensitivity (small sample size): https://www.fda.gov/media/136151/download
The PCR tests are actually very good. The problem is sample collection. Nasal swabs don't yield enough virus in some people (or at certain times during the infection) to come out positive in the test.
