Answer:

  • fever over 101 degrees
  • illness for two weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Alice has been feeling sick for two weeks, that alone should be enough for her to seek medical attention. That's because a two-week malaise is uncommon and it's a way for Alice's body to inform her that something is wrong. In addition, Alice has had fever for two days, which shows that she is sick and needs care. Fever is a defense mechanism of the body against any anomaly, and generally should not raise concerns. However, if the temperature gets too high, as with Alice, some serious problems can occur.
