HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your coccern for your neice, this could be viral fever and this is too early to put the patient on antibiotic, it would be better to wait for few days before initiating antibiotic, any way this is nothing to worry, every thing would be fine just let the fever run its courese, hope this information helps, take care.
I find this answer helpful
