Hypothermia

People who live in Minnesota are at higher risk for hypothermia. Hypothermia is when a person's body gets too cold. Some people do not wear enough clothes when they go outside. Or if a person is driving a car for four hours and the car stops working when they are driving, they could get hypothermia because it is cold outside. Always keep warm clothes and extra blankets when going on long car trips in cold weather. This could prevent hypothermia.
