We may finally have an answer, as Iceland basically decided to test its entire population.

I'll have to see DeCode's paper and what the final numbers are after they've tested everyone.  But based on wide-scale testing, it looks like between 20% and half of patients who test positive are asymptomatic.  Unfortunately, that is high enough to be a threat (lots of hidden infections) but not so high as to be positive (lots of people who have silently gotten the virus and developed immunity).

Gotta, say SARS-CoV-2 is a real f---er of a virus.
