Answers:
A damp cloth on the forehead can help. Don't cover up someone with a fever unless they want to be covered.
The body needs to stay at a particular temperature range. When someone has a fever, you need to cool their body to stay within that range.
You might also want to use a fan or air conditioner to keep him cool.
It is a huge mistake to force someone to cover up when they have a fever - you do not want to trap the heat.
