C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -If you have a weakened immune system, you are at risk of flu complications because your immune system is not able to fight the flu and other infections that may occur as flu complications (such as pneumonia). The immune system is your body’s defence against infections.

Detailed explanation-2: -Immunocompromisation is a way to describe a weak immune system. When your immune system is weakened, your body can’t fight off viruses, bacteria, or fungi very well. This can lead to serious infections and can pose a major health risk. Many different types of immune system disorders can cause health problems.

Detailed explanation-3: -You get a fever because your body is trying to kill the virus or bacteria that caused the infection. Most of those bacteria and viruses do well when your body is at your normal temperature. But if you have a fever, it is harder for them to survive. Fever also activates your body’s immune system.
