no it's not like a GVH reaction b/c that would require antibodies and antigens, but a blood transfusion causing fever is based off of interleukens being released in the blood. (I think IL-1 and maybe IL-6, but don't quote me on that part)
Also by premedicating with Tylenol you prevent that fever, but it's not a rejection. A rejection is characterized with symptoms of pain at the transfusion sight, hypotension, and fever to an extent b/c of hemolysis, but fever alone is no reason to stop a blood transfusion as long as it's not a fever that's going to fry the brain.
