10 Marburg Virus Symptoms
2. Chills
Have you ever wondered why we will often feel cold despite our body being very hot with a fever? Chills are a part of the mechanism that helps to heat up the body in the first place, hence why the two generally occur hand in hand.
They occur because our bodies adjust our internal thermostats, making us feel cold even when we are not. Feeling cold will then cause our muscles to shiver. This action causes our muscles to warm up, hence helping to heat the body overall. The symptom should clear up completely once the pathogen has been successfully dealt with.
