Two independent antibody studies show that more than 50 TIMES more people have the antibodies than have had positive test results.

Actually, the rate is derived by dividing the known deaths by the known positives, anything else is just an assumption. Naturally there are more out there that were never tested, and it's probably the same everywhere. But these total numbers are unknown at this time, and the only way to compare is with known numbers.
