I agree, but it is an open question how big the gap is between reported cases and actual infections -- 10X, 30X, 50X, more? For example, Michael Mina, a Harvard epidemiologist, said recently that he leaned toward actual infections being 50-100X confirmed cases, which is much higher than many others are guesstimating:
MICHAEL MINA: Yes. I was touching on this a little bit earlier, I think that the very first thing we have to do is just get a sort of order of magnitude understanding of how many people have actually been infected. We really don’t know if we’ve been 10 times off or 100 times off in terms of the cases. Personally, I lean more towards the 50 to 100 times off.
And we’ve actually had much wider spread of this virus than testing and the numbers are really giving us the moment. And that’s generally a feature of just extreme limited numbers of tests.

We are just beginning to get a few scattered (and generally pretty low quality) reports of antibody testing from around the world to start to answer that question.
Speaking of which, here is another new one -- 3% of blood donors in the Netherlands test positive with antibody test v. about 0.17% of the population confirmed cases (worldometer data).
Caveats: donors are not representative of the population and it is a press report (no details on tests provided).
