I'm not sure it's really considered a moral failing here in the UK, everyone gets it unless they're barricaded inside.

The official Government stats claim that over 15% have had a confirmed positive test at this point[1], I'd be surprised if the reality weren't over half.

Half of my friendship group currently have it (no idea whether it's Omicron or not, but, well, probably).
