32.7k people are infected! [Check out the status periodically here](https://dovedevic.github.io/memonavirus/html/). Also it’s been asked many times, so here is a tidbit. **Not all replies to infected comments will get you infected, as our bot is being API throttled by reddit.** Each hour, the infection rate caps out at 400 people give or take.

[A fantastic website has been created](https://dovedevic.github.io/memonavirus/html/) to track the virus progress. This website will evolve to add more nifty charts, graphs, and statistics.
