In USSR/Russia 36.6C has always been considered ideally normal (and until this very moment i thought that it was normal for the whole human race :). The same way - crossing 37C means you're sick.
It probably may also depend on where the temperature is taken. In USSR/Russia it is in the armpit, which is probably of lower temperature than anus/mouth which is where the temperature is taken in many other countries.
