A fever puts your body on notice that something is amiss. Core temp is high and the body/heart/circulatory system go into a high output state to deliver blood to the small capillaries in the skin (in an effort to cool down). Exercising then might magnify this high output situation and produce symptoms of heart failure or lightheadedness. Very little physiologic benefits of exercise when your sick.
