No, jaundice is one of the complications that some people get with yellow fever. Not everybody who gets yellow fiver gets jaundice.

Some people found gold and the word spread. Everyone wants to get rich quick.

Sneexing can be caused by many tghings, including a cold or an allergy. My grandfather once sneezed 40 times without stopping because he looked at the Sun.

Of course. People get fevers when you get a cold of the flu (influenza) and you don't do anything about it. Like, if you don't take medicine or keep warm, OR if you get the flu, and you keep going out on very cold weather.

Lassa fever is communicable. It's spread primarily via fecal oral route, though transmission by breast milk has been reported.

A low-grade fever in children is typically defined as a body temperature ranging from 99.1°F (37.3°C) to 100.4°F (38°C) when measured orally. This range may vary slightly depending on the measurement method used (oral, rectal, or axillary). While often a sign of a mild infection or illness, it is important for parents to monitor other symptoms and consult a healthcare professional if the fever persists or worsens.

Any temperature above 98.6 is considered a fever.

It is very common practice in developing countries to treat the typhoid fever as a case of malaria, specially in the first week. You tell patient that he has malaria. He does not respond to your antimalarial treatment. Then you have no option but to tell the patient that he has got both malaria and typhoid at the same time. The fact is that typhoid is usually difficult to diagnose in the first week of fever. It is always better to rule out the malarial fever by giving the antimalarial treatment in first week of febrile illness.

Dogs that are most commonly infected with canine valley fever are puppies, older dogs and dogs with compromised immune systems. The immune system does have the capability to fight off this infection before symptoms can even be realized, but it requires an exceptionally strong immune system to do so. They get by breathing in the spores just as in humans.

No, it is not. See: http://www.mayoclinic.org/rheumatic-fever/risks.html

A fever does not cause fever blisters, just like a cold doesn't cause cold sores (they are the same thing) but if infected with the Herpes Simplex I virus, a person's immune system is compromised and the virus can come out of its dormant stage. Too much sun, stress, certain foods, suppressed immune system are a few of the predisposing factors that can bring the Herpes Simplex Virus I out of its dormant stage. Remember once you have the virus, you will always have it. There is no cure.

No
Because the normal temperature of human body is 37 degree Celsius.

As it has been described to me, patients with Dengue have such joint pain that even in convalesence their gait is affected to produce a waddle reminescent of the affective gait of a "dandy" walking with a walking stick or cane.

Ibuprofen is a good fever reducing pill.

An alternative is using cold and wet towels.

Necessary materials:

1-3 small towels, large enough to cover your face

1- bucket of ice water

A couch to lay on

Wet the towels and apply them rolled onto your forehead and under your underarms. When they warm up again, re-moisten them. Repaet this until the body cools off and try to fall asleep, when done so and taken with a fever reducer, the fever may go away after you nap.

Malaria, the disease, is transmitted by the mosquito. Malaria can cause fever

Yes ... but not in a specific way.

It turns out that chicken soup is highly nutricious and easy to digest,

whenever you are healing from almost anything, your body needs energy plus amino acids for rebuild - turns out chicken soup is great ... but not unique.

This method for assessing temperature has long been considered more accurate than other methods. The problem with that rationale is that insertion into feces can actually provide an inaccurate reading. Not to mention that the risk for tearing the sensitive tissue at the anus, or for inserting the thermometer too far, causing a rectal perforation, diminishes the value of the accuracy argument anyway. This method is particularly contraindicated in newborns < 1 month; patients with diarrhea, hemorrhoids, or recent rectal surgery.

A fever, or pyrexia, is a rise in internal body temperature to levels that are considered to be above normal. Body temperature is determined by the body's thermoregulatory set-point. The body increases this set-point in response to threats such as bacterial or viral infections.

No, yellow fever is referred to as "yellow fever", without any capitalizations, unless at the beginning of a sentence or quote.

37.1 Is the higher range of normal, but nothing to be concerned about just yet. You should keep an eye on your temperature though. If its above 37.7, it is a fever, and much higher than that you should seek medical attention.
