Answer to Question 1

D
Work stress for nurses happens with work overload, heavy physical work, shift work, patient concerns (dealing with death and medical treatment), and interpersonal problems with other health care professionals and staff.

Answer to Question 2

A
Immunization, the process by which resistance to an infectious disease is produced or increased, often reduces or prevents the transmission of disease from person to person. The body acquires active immunity by injecting a small amount of weakened or dead organisms and modified toxins from the organism (toxoids) into the body.

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.
