98.6°F (37°C) is the standard human body temperature, established by Carl Wunderlich in 1851 after measuring ~25,000 patients. Modern research suggests the average is closer to 97.9°F (36.6°C), possibly because chronic infections have decreased over 150 years. In medicine, above 100.4°F (38°C) is generally a fever. Heat stroke occurs above 104°F (40°C) — a medical emergency. Below 95°F (35°C) signals hypothermia.
