<p>Instead of “他已经因为发烧了感到很弱。 <strong>更坏的是</strong>, 他不让别人给他汤喝.” (<strong>what was worse</strong>), you can also translate it literally, such as "他已经因为发烧了感到很弱。 <strong>所以</strong> 不让别人给他汤喝 <strong>并无裨益</strong>/<strong>没有帮助</strong>。（<strong>So</strong>...<strong>didn't help.</strong>)</p>

<p>I personally would put the sentence as “他发烧得很虚弱了, <strong>可还</strong> 拒绝喝汤。(<strong>however yet</strong>) </p>

<p>In english, we often use the transition "it didn't help that" to indicate that something bad had happened, and that there was another factor that potentially made it even worse. </p>

<p>Ex. He was already very sick from the fever, so it didn't help that he refused to drink soup. </p>

<p>Could I say, 
他已经因为发烧了感到很弱。 更坏他不让别人给他汤喝？ </p>

Could I say,

Instead of “他已经因为发烧了感到很弱。 **更坏的是**, 他不让别人给他汤喝.” (**what was worse**), you can also translate it literally, such as "他已经因为发烧了感到很弱。 **所以** 不让别人给他汤喝 **并无裨益**/**没有帮助**。（**So**...**didn't help.**)

I personally would put the sentence as “他发烧得很虚弱了, **可还** 拒绝喝汤。(**however yet**)
