in the first few months where they were only testing people that really thought they had it

I don't think this is quite right. I really thought I had it, as did a lot of people I know, some of whom have subsequently tested positive for antibodies, but we couldn't get tested.

IIRC to get tested you had to be NHS or in hospital.

I guess it should say "they were only testing people who they really thought had it". It still feels like a lot of negative tests for single positives.

Another factor is that you can get 4 tested at a single drive through centre appointment.
We have a household of 4, likely we’ll all get tested today.
