Answer to Question 1

Many developing countries have received a lot of capital inflows that lead them to a huge debt to foreigners. These debts are been produced because the economy of the developing world is very small compared to the economy of the industrial world. Since developing countries face a lot of poverty and poor financial institutions, national savings is often low and because of that, they are always facing current account deficit. Even though, these countries are very poor in capital, there are opportunities for profitable introduction or expansion of firms and equipments, and these opportunities give good reason for a high level of investment. However, because these countries always have deficits in their current account, a country can obtain resources from abroad to invest even if its domestic savings level is low. This means that the country is going to have to borrow money from a foreign country. These ways of production are the one that lie behind capital inflows because by helping these countries to grow and expand, the price to be pay is a big debt which they know based on their circumstances its going to be hard to repaid.

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.
