you in an emergency let's get started call the police please if you are
telling someone to call the police it means you're telling someone to dial
nine-one-one to call the police or maybe there's police nearby and you tell
someone hey call the police the police are there to help you in any
situation that you might need them maybe you're lost maybe you lost your
purse or your wallet maybe you've been in a car accident the police will help
you so if you tell someone call the police please it means you need them to
get the police for you do you have a fever do you have a fever if you are
asking someone if they have a fever you are asking them if their temperature
is higher than is normal or safe if someone has a fever that may mean they
have an underlying condition that needs medical attention a fever may be a
