I’m not a doctor, so the usual disclaimers, but with three kids this has generally been our experience — young ones get some ridiculously high fevers by adult standards and generally, if they clearly have a virus, it’s not something too freak out about. The big exceptions are if they’re really young — like still babies — or if they’re not themselves: can’t stand up, overly weak, not eating or drinking. My main point of contention is around using the internet as a diagnostic tool — much better to call an advice nurse if you have access to one.
