Answer to Question 1

Focus groups are exploratory, meaning that you're not ready to put specific questions on a survey. They are usually used for concept testing in the early stages of new product development or when working on ad campaigns. In a focus group, about 8 to 10 consumers discuss your products and your competitors' products in the contexts of their lives, typically while you watch from behind a two-way mirror. One person is hired to be a moderator, and he or she keeps the discussion going, tries to address all the items on the client's wish list, tries to bring out the quieter group members, tries to control the overbearing group members, and so on. It can help to have the moderator be similar to the focus group participants, especially if there is a sensitive topic involved. The moderator kicks off the group discussion with some warm-up exercise, then questions from the client are introduced and the discussion begins. Different topics are introduced along the way, and after 1.5 hours, the group is thanked, dismissed, and paid. As an observer, you take notes and then discuss these with your team as well as the moderator who interpreted the situation, too. These observations can be very helpful, but it is always a good idea to follow up with a large-scale survey.

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.
