What Causes Continued Fever With West Nile Virus Test Negative?
My husband has had a fever for the last 7 days. Was seen by physician in office and blood was taken. Test came back negative for West Nile Virus and nothing else has showed up in blood test. We went to the ER 4 days later and they also found nothing.

hi welcome to HCM
I can understand your concern.
Dont worry, your husband is having some viral fever. it gets reduce on its own. usually it takes 7 to 10 days no need of any antibiotics, as it doesnt act on virus. tell him to take rest and Tab Paracetamol if he has fever.
thank you
take care
