How many people have caught this virus and never even knew they had it?
“Italy reported a 50% increase in coronavirus cases Sunday”

They are saying now, based on studying the bug in Washington and comparing it to the bugs in China and Korea, that it’s been floating around for 6+ weeks. Ditto same deal in Italy.
Now there are cases in NY, FL, etc, I expect the same progression.
Remember, today’s fatalities correlate to last week’s case number, because it’s about a week from symptoms to death, on average.
There are a ton of asymptomatic carriers. One just showed up in Israel yesterday. Japan separates its new cases by symptomatic and asymptomatic.
A bunch. Many folks don’t show symptoms for a while, or at all.
“How many people have caught this virus and never even knew they had it because they died right away?”
There, fixed.
