Answer to Question 1

1
Explanation: 1. Transportation presents a potential barrier to someone in a rural area, as healthcare is not as plentiful as it is in more urban areas, and rural areas do not tend to have public transportation.
2. Education is not a barrier to health care in rural areas.
3. While people living in rural areas tend to be less likely to have health insurance, this isn't necessarily a barrier to health care.
4. Technology is present, and not a barrier to health care for those in rural areas.

Answer to Question 2

1
Explanation: 1. Many guest workers/migrant farm workers come from Mexico and Central America. If there are no interpreters available, language can be a potential barrier for health care, even if it is provided.
2. Farm workers are provided housing, so technically they are not homeless, even if the housing conditions are substandard.
3. Racism is not so much a factor in this caselanguage is the greater barrier.
4. Health care specific to farm workers is provided where they are working.

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.
