I seem to recall some medical research on an "induced fever machine" to hasten recovery from colds and flu and other virals. I think it was a combination steam cabinet and microwave thingy. The project seemed to disappear rather quickly, though, so I would not try to crawl into the RadarRange and have Billy punch the button.

I agree with the "burn it up" theory. Raise the body temp.

Zicam works for me, IF I take it early. Like just as soon as I feel iffy. Later than that, and you waste the dough.

Ditto fluids. I do best with water+something, like sweet iced tea or gator.

Chicken broth has proven antivirals in it...
