[RC] Reaction to West Nile shot - DAldr94141

Hi. Has anyone had a reaction to the West Nile vaccine this spring? My friends horses and my horses got the shot on Thurs. My friends horse is still very ill with a 106 temp since Fri. morning (today is Sat.) and he's still that high. It went down a few last night but is back up today. He was shaking and lying down.    This morning, I went out to feed and my one mare was shaking out of her skin and her temp was 104. All of my friends other horses and my others are ok so far.     The vet tubed them both with oil since they were gassy and gave them bute intravaniously.  I'm in Medina, Ohio.  
Anyone else have this happen and how long will this go on? I'm expecting my horse to be sick for a couple of days like this. I'm tempted to put cool water on parts of her body with a cloth but afraid that would make her shake.
