The Pokérus is a Pokémon Virus on PokéFarm that affects one user at a time for 15 minutes. The times for Pokérus are at the :00, :15, :30, and :45 minute marks.
Effects of Pokérus
Only the user who has Pokérus gets affected by it. Interacting with a Pokérus host doubles the amount of EXP which the user would usually get, which also stacks with Niet's Bonus Counter, the Hypermode EXP bonus, and bonuses from Wishforge Badges. On the other hand, if a Pokérus host interacts with Pokémon or Eggs then their received Interaction Points are doubled, which also stacks with Garthic's Counter.
So on a Bonus Day where Interactions are counted ×3, the Pokérus Host would receive the doubled amount, so ×6 Interactions. In that case an Egg would get 300 EXP with only one interaction instead of the 50 EXP it would receive on a normal day.
Interaction Points are the same. Interacting with an Egg gives 6 Interaction Points on normal days, on a Bonus Day where 7 Interaction Points are added to each click an Interaction with an Egg gives 13 Interaction Points. On such a day, a Pokérus Host gets the doubled amount, earning 26 Interaction Points for each Interaction with an Egg.
The Pokérus Host
The Pokérus host is the user that is affected by Pokérus and are recognised by the Pokérus Icon 
next to their name. The Pokérus link located on the top of every page takes users to the current Pokérus host. A host receives double the Interaction Points and EXP from Interactions. The current Pokérus host will see the Pokérus icon at the top of the page next to Today's Interactions.
The host is randomly chosen and changes every 15 minutes, starting at server reset.
Getting Pokérus
To obtain Pokérus it is necessary to interact with the current Pokérus host. The amount of interactions for each user are put into a drawing at the end of each 15 minute interval. Interacting more often with the host raises the chance of "catching" Pokérus, but it is not guaranteed as other users also interact with the host. The winner of this drawing becomes the next host.
- Note: The selection of the next Pokérus host is random, so it is still possible for a user who only interacted once with the past host to become the next Pokérus host.
Any interactions that were made before the host got Pokérus are counted. However, it is necessary for the new host to be active within the last 15 minutes for the interactions to count.
If, for any reason, nobody interacted with the host, then a random Staff member will receive it.
Immunity
After the Pokérus has ended, the past host becomes immune to it for one hour. Users will have timer bar that shows the amount of time that they have left for their Pokérus immunity. This is a measurement to prevent one user from getting Pokérus repeatedly. This immunity does not affect the user after it has ended and does not change the chances of getting Pokérus again.
