The Netherlands have a fatality rate of about 6.5%, but the RIVM is very open about the fact that testing is not comprehensive. Patients presenting to the hospital with COVID-19 like symptoms get tested, but people who are not admitted rarely do. This is rather easily identified because the number of confirmed cases is only 3 times as high as the number of hospitalized cases. It's not helped by the fact that people who have been in contact with infected people do not as a matter of course get tested.
We most likely will not know here in the Netherlands how much of the population actually was infected by COVID-19 until the blood bank reports on how much of the donations carry antibodies for the disease. Once that is known I would expect the reported fatality rate to drop substantially.
