You dont even need to do "a lot" of testing.

What you need to do is to just select represantative part of the society (up to 10,000-20,000 people in a country big like USA) and test them FOR ANTIBODIES of covid.

Later extrapolate that number to the whole society.
If you properly selected people for this probe, the results will be more or less accurate for the whole society. "how many people already had it"
This is how the statistics and polls work...
Accurate +- 5 %.
