    NewsAnimalsFevers link with specialized immunity is surprisingly ancientFevers boost survival and killing ability of T cells in fish Nile tilapia (one shown) seek warmer waters when sick, a behavior that kicks off their specialized adaptive immune system, a new study suggests.Luying WangBy McKenzie Prillaman13 seconds agoThe immune-boosting power of a fever is surprisingly ancient.Cold-blooded creatures like fish typically move to warmer environments to help fight infections.
