Question 2

A study compared flu vaccine administered by injection and flu vaccine administered as a nasal spray. Each of 4,000 children under the age of 5 who participated in the study received both a nasal spray and an injection, but only one was the real vaccine and the other was salt water. At the end of the flu season, it was determined that of the 2,000 children receiving the real vaccine by nasal spray, 10.1 got the flu.
  Of the 2,000 children receiving the real vaccine by injection, 15.6 got the flu. The 95 confidence interval for the difference in treatment proportions is:
  1.0.00  0.021
  2.0.055  0.017
  3.0.055  0.024
  4.0.055  0.021
  5.0.00  0.023

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.
