We have two docs in our family; during COVID they both told me the contact one on the temple and the infrared no-contact one are both accurate. The under the tongue ones usually measure low and the others are more hygienic.

Actually, the most accurate is rectally but who the heck wants to bend over? Heck, who the heck can reach anymore 😂 

Former home health provider, but under the tongue is the second best.  Open and hold down until you hear beep, or three minutes. 😆

You're exactly right.  I was that told once by a nurse when I was in the hospital.
