I also live in Germany, and similar experience. I rarely know people who have been infected with Covid, and none with Omicron. Omicron is also a bit delayed in Germany (which is good).

I live in Ireland and I know at least 100 people who have had covid, including my wife, father, mother and 2 sisters. Omicron is prevalent here right now.

  I think you know more people who have had it than I know in total.

    Everyone knows everyone in Ireland. It's a blessing and a curse.

  Germans are notoriously „under-tested“

    I didn't know that. Is that because of access to PCR testing services or a "head in the sand" attitude? We're in a situation now where our PCR test system has pretty much fallen apart.

    My sister recently had her PCR anniversary of 100 tests. OTOH, I’m at 2 quick tests and one PCR, but I work from home and only leave for stores. Not sure about the under-tested in general, all the public testing stations were always super busy.
