Answer to Question 1

Organizations need to obey the law and to act ethically. Corporate social responsibility involves more. Advocates claim that an organization has an obligation to the community in which it operates -locally, nationally, and/or globally. This may include such activities as developing environmentally-friendly products and contributing to philanthropic causes. It has been suggested that socially responsible companies perform well financially due to the virtual circle, whereby they attract customers and investors.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE

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.
