With flu symptoms, you usuallyâthough not alwaysâdo see a fever, often in the 100 to 102 range (though that can be higher, especially in young children). Don't be surprised if the fever lasts several days. Even though it feels awful, remember that fevers are your body's way of fighting off the infection.

The actual Fed Funds Rate is the interest rate at which depository institutions lend balances at the Federal Reserve to other depository institutions overnight. The real rate changes daily but is usually close to the target rate desired by the Federal Reserve.
The Federal Reserve System also directly sets the discount rate, which is the interest rate for discount window lending, overnight loans that member banks borrow directly from the Fed. This rate is generally set at a rate close to 100 basis points above the target federal funds rate.
