A member of the search group said that she had to be put on an intravenous line (a needle connected to a fluid that gets injected directly into the blood) in order to rehydrate her. He hooks up the intravenous line so that it can inject distilled water into her blood. Is this a good idea? Why or why not? (C, A) са
