Answer to Question 1

Arguably, globalization is the most frequently cited change factor by business leaders, and it has replaced the post-World War II Cold War as the dominant driving force in world economics. The concept of the global marketplace or global economy has taken on new meaning for all enterprises (profit and nonprofit; small, medium, and large; products or services) and for individual consumers during the last two decades.
Overall, globalization has led to a more competitively intense economic and geopolitical environment. This environment manifests itself in opportunities and threats, both economic and political. Some individuals have implied that there is no geography in the current global environment (figuratively speaking) or, perhaps more aptly, that time and distance have been compressed.

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.
