So, just a little heads up on internal body temperature from a medical perspective. 5:35 +/- a few degrees isn't inherently lethal, what matters is whether or not that altered temperature is sustained long enough to induce damage at the cellular level, and the time to induce damage is inversely proportional to the difference in temperature between your current temperature and your body's homeostatic set point (typically 98.6 F, but this actually varies between persons based on a bell-curve distribution, and is also relative to time of day, age, metabolic rate, etc). On the hot side, very high temperatures can denature proteins within cells, but a raised temperature is actually beneficial in many cases of infection. This is because higher temperatures can reduce the replication rate of, say, viruses, buying your immune system time to fight the infection. Another way to think of it is that the infection doesn't make your body hot, your body makes your body hot to turn the tide in your favor. Unpleasantries like thick mucus and a painful cough are positives that keep new and existing viruses out. On the cold side, studies have been done to show that cooling the body way way down can buy medical workers time to treat and transport patients. What comes to mind are patients that have drowned in cold water and were revived long after thanks to careful, strategic re-warming and respiratory support.
