Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Families, and especially children, have borne a disproportionate burden of the recent economic failures. After tremendous strides in family economic well-being throughout the 1990s, the 2000s have seen a steady decline. Additionally, the number of children living below the poverty line has risen throughout the decade and is projected to continue to rise. Minority families and female-only households have been the hardest hit.

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.
