I remember my parents telling me I had a super high fever once when I was young. They said I went into convulsions and lost consciousness. For the longest time, I just thought I was really sick. I now wonder if I got one of those shots a couple days before I had that fever? God willing, I turned out ok (I think….).
Remember what they said in that press conference, "Tylenol to reduce a fever can make viral infections persist longer."
The purpose of a fever is to cook off an infection.
Perhaps the fever saved you. Perhaps the addition of Tylenol to make the fever go away would've been a worse outcome.

I once had a fever that Tylenol didn't help at all, even though that's what my Dr said to take. What did help was plain old aspirin.
