The brain is not responsible for fevers, the immune system is.

Is more cowbell required?

It’s literally the only prescription.

You feel like shit so you don’t go around and infect others, but instead stay home.

Fevers always work out great for me. I’ll be all shivery and crash under a pile of blankets. Wake up a few hours later, soaking wet, I mean really, truly gross, and it’s over, all better.

This is what I do (and have for almost 20 years). Once I notice what feels like a fever, ASAP I layer up and sleep for as long as my schedule allows. Seems to really work well.
The few things that stick around after that, though, those are guaranteed to fuck me up for a few days.

This is how I found out I got a bad strain of COVID after getting vaxed. Sleep through a rough fever, next day all good, except muscle pain; it lasted for 2 weeks.
Years later I get antibodies checked I developed antibodies for a strain that didn’t exist when I was vaxed, that episode happened 1y later. Yup, fevers are the best.

Since when can we skeep during fevers, all I get is a splitting headache with breaks of nightmares and tossing and turning.
