Oh, how come ? Would you happen to have a source for that, apart from the TrustMeBro News Network? 😄

That makes sens, thanks!
For conversion purposes, 40°C = 104°F :)

That's when the fever gets too high, I get that -- but does that mean as long s it's safely below 40°C (or the adequate threshold for elderly, infants, etc.), it is better to keep it going?
