Macrophages just want to watch the whole body burn.

From what I've read, anything over about 101F is doing more harm than good.
-
That's 38C for anyone out of the US
-
311 Kelvin for anyone who is an absolutist
And
560 Rankine for absolutists who wish to stick with Fahrenheit

Pretty sure it's anything at 42°C or above that is a vital emergency, as it starts to destroy neurons
39°C is basically a normal fever

I just converted what they said

Then convert better next time! (/s)

That's not very high
-
38C is a nice handful, not a temperature.

This does not appear to match the evidence anymore: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7717216/
The body is generally unable to raise the core temperature to the point where it can cause permanent damage, unless the ambient temperature is high. That is, unless there is a pre-existing heart or other vital organ condition.
In fact, fevers >=39C (102.2F) showed better outcomes in covid patients.

I thought danger was at 104F??
-
Apparently, ~108F, but generally, the body needs help to get there.
