Why do we have more omicron cases than other countries?

Sorry if this has come up before. I saw an article earlier about omicron case numbers around Europe. Most countries seem to be in the low double figures, whereas we're approaching 5k. I also had a quick look at some foreign newspapers and it's not really headline news.

Do we test/sequence a lot more? Or do we really have that many more cases? Reminds me a bit of our general stats on cases/deaths. Seems odd that we would be doing so much worse than countries with very similar measures, populations etc. (as much as think our gov. has been exceptionally crap!).
