Which of the following statement is most correct about fevers? CH Fevers are never dangerous. Just rest and consume fluids and it will always pass. Fevers decrease your skin temperature and cause you to shiver because you are cold OFevers reset your core temperature meaning you feel cold and shiver OFevers increase your temperature and you shiver because you feel warm Fevers should be avoided at all costs and are always dangerous Fevers are an immune response and can kill any infectious pathogen Pathogens, such as coronaviruses, increase our body temperature with their movement (i.e. kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy) Pathogens, such as coronaviruses, decrease our ability to keep ourselves warm and so we shiver The newest strain of the SARS-CoV-2 virus will never result in a fever; only cold-like symptoms
