Per https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2787098 https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle... and other studies, an estimated 40% of infections are asymptotic. So, for anyone who hasn’t had symptoms, by far the most likely explanation is that they had an asymptomatic case.
If this study’s estimate that 6% haven’t been infected, then it’s about 8 times more likely you’ve had COVID and didn’t know it.
