High body temperature increases resistance to

Viral infections affect the elderly more frequently than the younger population. Moreover, elderly individuals also have lower mean body temperatures. Taking cues from these clinical observations, a team of researchers from The University of Tokyo undertook a study to find the missing link between body temperature and infection resistance. Findings indicate that increased body temperature suppresses virus replication and excessive inflammatory responses.
