heavily wooded areas.

A These are common fallacies about children and pain.
B These are common fallacies about children and pain.
C Pain is whatever the experiencing person says it is, whenever the person says it
exists. Pain is not questioned in an adult 12 hours after surgery.
D Children may deny pain to the nurse because they fear receiving an injectable
analgesic or because they believe they deserve to suffer as a punishment for a
misdeed. They may refuse to admit pain to a stranger, but readily tell a parent.

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.
