if you are taking temperature for individuals whom are:
• neonates and infants under 3 months
• over 60 years of age
• having diabetes mellitus or a weakened immune system
(e.g. HIV positive, cancer chemotherapy, chronic steroid
treatment, splenectomy)

Fever may be lower or even absent in elderly patients.
