Answer to Question 1

Ethics refers to the acceptable ways individuals interact with one another and for the good of society. Ethics defines the nature of duties that people owe themselves and one another. One duty is to not intrude on a person's privacy. Laws embody ethical principles, but acts that are considered unethical may not be illegal. Conversely, the law is not simply the coding of ethical norms, nor are all ethical codes incorporated into public law. A common agreement in a society as to what is right and wrong determines ethics, but they are not subject to legal sanctions except when they overlap with activities that also are illegal.

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.
