I’m french so I’ve got the Celsius part, and I know that anything over 37,5 is a fever, but you don’t go fainting and panting at 38,2, or maybe it’s just that I’m built different but it never seemed to me that a 38,2 fever was so harsh
like ofc you’re not feeling well and generally you’re hurting somewhere so it’s no like you’re having a good day. but by saying the characters I should’ve said characters in mangas, bc fever is a recurrent theme (especially in shoujos), and they are always like hallucinating, they can’t move out of their bed for an entire day, even though it seems that their fever are not that high.
maybe it’s bc at this temperature I just took pills and was sent to school when I was little

I’m always impressed at how the characters are so weak when it comes to sickness, like 38,2 is nothing come on, and still they’ll be fainting and hallucinating lmao
