100 fever :: Article Creator Fever Warning Signs You Shouldn't Ignore A fever serves as your body's sophisticated alarm system, particularly prevalent during peak illness seasons when viruses like COVID-19 and influenza circulate widely. Rather than being a standalone condition, an elevated temperature indicates your immune system's active response to potential threats.
