Single panel comic.

Two column table
Title: Treating a fever

Column 1: Fever (all numbers are in Celsius unless stated otherwise)
Column 2: Treatment

38 - 40 (100 - 104 Fahrenheit) fluids, rest, normal doctor stuff

40 - 45 hospital, advanced doctor stuff

45 - 100 exit that steam cloud immediately

100 - 400 stop, drop, and roll

400 - 500 return to Earth from Venus ASAP

500 - 1,500 please climb out of that volcano

1500 - 5,000 turn your tunneling machine around and come back up to the surface

5,000 - 6,000 no, the surface of the *Earth* not the sun

6,000 - 50,000 wait, that's not the sun. what star are you visiting? come back right now

50,000 - 20,000,000 at least stay on the *surface* of the star instead of diving down to the core

20,000,000 - 10,000,000,000 you know, you could've picked a normal star instead of one that's exploding

10,000,000,000 or higher I hope you're enjoying your visit to the Big Bang, but you should really come back home immediately
