Answer to Question 1

Specific protection includes measures to reduce the threat of specific diseases or injury, such as hygiene, immunizations, use of seat belts, and the elimination of workplace hazards. Illness pre-vention is a behavior directed toward reducing the threat of illness. Health promotion focuses on positive measures such as education for healthy living and promotion of favorable environmental conditions. Health protection strategies include environmental measures to improve health and quality of life.

Answer to Question 2

Secondary prevention focuses on early detection and prompt treatment of disease, injury, or dis-ability. Primary prevention attempts to promote health and provide specific protection from dis-ease. Tertiary prevention addresses rehabilitation and the return of people with chronic illness to maximal ability to function. Health promotion activities are interventions focused on improving one's health.

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.
