Okay, okay, I know I'm jumping on the hysteria bandwagon, but I'm
wondering how an extended high fever (such as the one said to be
associated with SARS) would affect a 16 week old fetus. I've read a lot
in the forums about fever in the first trimester, but little about
second semester risk. Would an extended high fever cause harm at this
stage?
Thanks for your help--
Ana
