Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

The five-component framework can also be used when assessing the scope of new systems. For example, when a vendor pitches the need for a new technology, the five components are used to assess how big of an investment that new technology represents. What new hardware will the user need? What programs will the user need to license? What databases and other data must the user create? What procedures will need to be developed for both the use and administration of the information system? And, finally, what will be the impact of the new technology on people? Which jobs will change? Who will need training? How will the new technology affect morale? Will the user need to hire new people? Will the user need to reorganize? The five-component model helps the user think more completely about the impact of new technology.

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.
