Answer to Question 1

B, C, D, E
Children ages 6 to 59 months should receive the influenza vaccine, not children 3 to 6 months of age. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices also suggests that pregnant women, people over age 50, and people with certain chronic illnesses receive the vaccine. In addition, health care workers and those caring for people in homes who are at high risk for contracting in-fluenza should receive the vaccine.

Answer to Question 2

C
The CA-125 is one of the tests the physician will monitor to detect the presence of ovarian cancer or recurrence of ovarian cancer after therapy. Fine-needle biopsy causes the least amount of scarring during breast cancer biopsy. The patient's CEA level will rise if pancreatic cancer is present. Recommendations suggest a colonoscopy every 10 years if the examination is negative and there is no family history of colon cancer.
