A member asked:

If a child is pale, coughing, cannot keep their eyes open and shivering sometimes what illness do they have? can they pass it onto adults?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say: This is a collection of problems that should be evaluated today by your doc. It could be quite serious and may be contagious.
