Rectal, I take (which is 0.5-1.0°C above axillary).

I guess, but as Melanchton mentioned, they don't do the rectal measurement any longer, even in MD offices and hospitals: everybody has switched to electronic ear devices.
But rectal temperature measurement was standard MO back in the days.

Europeans think a hundred miles is a long way. Americans think a hundred years is a long time.

Ear temp is higher than axillary, too.
