Original Note:
Mylar emergency bivi bags, blankets and shelters can be effective and useful in certain situations if used correctly. However they can also be dangerous in others. For example they cannot help if someone already has hypothermia as they have no insulation properties. https://www.backpacker.com/survival/survival-skills/emergency-shelters/how-and-when-hikers-should-use-space-blankets-and-survival-blankets/
