LabelIF LOST BODY HEAT SLOWLY
Question text I'd like you to read these pages on hypothermia. They're from a First Aid book. Then you've read them I'll ask you a couple of questions. You don't have to read out loud. If someone has lost body heat and become hypothermic slowly, what is the best way to rewarm them?
