Question 2

Many instances involving genetically modified organisms, especially food crops, will be entering the human food chain in the years to come. On what basis are genetically modified foods considered safe to eat?
◦ They are only slightly toxic.
◦ Genetically modified food products are considered safe if they are found to be not toxic or allergenic or have other negative physiological effects.
◦ All products to be cleared for human consumption have been personally tested by all members of the regulatory agency.
◦ Each genetically modified food product is screened for its resistance to antibiotics.
◦ Because of the possible economic impact of rigorous testing, such food products are minimally tested in sheep and cattle.

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.
