But we know there are more than 1% cases.

We have good data that the IFR is in the 0.1-1% range, putting cases in say MA in the 7% range a couple of weeks ago (time from infection to death), which based on confirmed cases would put it well above 10% now

That means you’d have 1k false positive and 10k true positive from a test.
