Research in the Netherlands shows 3% of blooddonors have anti-bodies [0] (or [1] for translation).
The Netherlands has about 17 million people. Assuming the 3% translates to only 1% of the population, that still would be 170.000
Officially they found 30.000 positively tested cases [2].
So even with this (I think) conservative estimate there are at the very least 5 times more infected people than tested cases. So proably most of the infected people really do not seem to have any sympthoms.
