2 students from my class registered temperature readings of 37.5 deg (Lynette) and 37.7 deg (Benjamin). Lynette had to take her exam in the Art Room while Benjamin was sent home eventually; incidentally, Benjamin showed me a temperature of 38.1 deg the other day, but that was a prank (he rubbed the probe). Well, this time it's for real.
