Oh I vomited vodka a couple nights ago and smoked one cigarette (my first on ever) this was on the same night, and now I have a fever and sore throat, is it from that?

Normal Body Temperature. Body temperature is usually measured by a thermometer placed in the mouth, the rectum, or the auditory canal (for tympanic membrane temperature). The normal oral temperature is 37° Celsius (98.6° Fahrenheit); rectally, it is 37.3° Celsius (99.2° Fahrenheit). The tympanic membrane temperature is a direct reflection of the body's core temperature. These values are based on a statistical average. Normal temperature varies somewhat from person to person and at different times in each person. It is usually slightly higher in the evening than in the morning and is also somewhat higher during and immediately after eating, exercise, or emotional excitement. Temperature in infants and young children tends to vary somewhat more than in adults.
Temperature Regulation. To maintain a constant temperature, the body must be able to respond to changes in the temperature of its surroundings. When the outside temperature drops, nerve endings near the skin surface sense the change and communicate it to the hypothalamus. Certain cells of the hypothalamus then signal for an increase in the body's heat production. This heat is conducted to the blood and distributed throughout the body. At the same time, the body acts to conserve its heat. The arterioles constrict so that less blood will flow near the body's surface. The skin becomes pale and cold. Sometimes it takes on a bluish color, the result of a color change in the blood, which occurs when the blood, flowing slowly, gives off more of its oxygen than usual. Another signal from the brain stimulates muscular activity, which releases heat. Shivering is a form of this activity-a muscular reflex that produces heat.

Jungle fever is a term used to refer to the various Tropical diseases, such as Malaria. But it has also been adopted as a racist term used to describe the attraction between those in interracial relationships. It is used to imply that all blacks are primitive natives from the jungle and the only way a white person would have that attraction is if they were diseased. Used this way, it is offensive and bigoted. It is also an improper term often used in the porno industry.
The first known mention of "jungle fever" in this racist context was in 1867 when a German zoologist became ill while traveling in the Tropics, where most illnesses such as malaria, yellow fever, and typhoid were all categorized as jungle fever (and still are). While being cared for, however, he developed feelings for his caretaker, a Rhodesian woman, and refused to return home to his wife. Those back in Europe spoke of his "sickness/jungle fever" not as a reference to his having a contagious Tropical disease, but in reference to his attraction to the African woman.
The term again became popularized as a reference to interracial couples with the very controversial 1991 Spike Lee film Jungle Fever, starring Wesley Snipes & Annabella Sciorra. Wikipedia provides a brief synopsis of the film, see link below in the related links section. The term has lost its popularity since the bigoted subtext has been explained to the uneducated who now better understand its negative context.
