See a doctor: lower body temperature is not necessarily good, it could be chills and some time could indicate a systemic infection .either go to the ER or see a doctor for proper evaluation, you might need antibiotic for the sore throat if it turn to be a bacterial infection. so go and see a doctor

Call Doc or go to ER: Both high and LOW temperatures can be signs of infection with low temperatures being often being more worrisome of a systemic infection or bacteremia. Although, this is not diagnostic of a severe condition a low temperature like that is worrisome and needs to be checked sooner than later.
