Note: throughout the literature on the 1918 influenza, doctors from every school of medicine found influenza patients who had been treated with the fever suppressing medication aspirin (which was excessively distributed by MDs of the era) tended to be much more likely to die, while conversely, they discovered that the most effective treatments for the illness were those which then caused the fever to break on its own. Similarly, after I learned of the arguments against suppressing fevers, when I came down with a flu and did not feel well, I decided to try heating my body to see if it would accelerate the clearance of the infection and discovered not only that it did, but also that I immediately felt much better once I heated myself. This led me to conclude the discomfort the body experiences during a fever (assuming it is not an extreme fever) is not due to the heat, but rather the effort being expended to heat the body up and since then I’ve had many cases where heating the bodies (but not heads) of febrile patients greatly benefitted them.

Question: Why do they still recommend aspirin to reduce fever if they discovered those taking aspirin to reduce fever were more likely to die? The answer will outrage you.
