What's a normal temperature

37.0 °C (98.6 °F) is the average body tempaerature.

The typical oral (under the tongue) measurement is 36.8±0.7 °C, or 98.2±1.3 °F.

In Russia and former Soviet countries, the commonly quoted value is 36.6 °C (97.9 °F), based on an armpit (axillary) reading.

Although some people think of these numbers as representing the normal temperature, a wide range of temperatures has been found in patients considered to be normal.^[3] In samples of normal adult men and women, the observed range for oral temperature is 33.2–38.2 °C (92–101 °F), for rectal it is 34.4–37.8 °C (94–100 °F), for the Tympanic cavity it is 35.4–37.8 °C (96–100 °F) and for axillary it is 35.5–37.0 °C (96–99 °F).^[4]
