Answer to Question 1

Answer: Step 1: Antigen causes the release of chemoattractants to draw neutrophils to it. Neutrophils diapedese from the marginal pool in blood vessels into the tissues toward the antigen (chemotaxis).
Step 2: Antigen is opsonized with antibodies produced by B lymphocytes so that the PMNs can recognize them.
Step 3: The PMN engulfs the foreign antigen to form a phagosome.
Step 4: The PMN granules fuse with the phagosome (phagolysosome) and chemically digest it.

Answer to Question 2

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.

Fatal fungal infections may be able to resist newer antifungal drugs. Globally, fungal infections are often fatal due to the lack of access to multiple antifungals, which may be required to be utilized in combination. Single antifungals may not be enough to stop a fungal infection from causing the death of a patient.
