Febris
Febris (), or Dea Febris (), is the Roman goddess of fevers, who embodied, but also protected people from, fever and malaria. Because of this, Febris was a feared goddess whom people wanted the favour of. She does not have a myth of her own nor is she mentioned in a myth. Among her characteristic attributes are "shrewdness" and "honesty", according to Seneca the Younger's Apocolocyntosis.
