Answer to Question 1

C
The most common signs and symptoms of skin infections include redness, pain, discoloration, swelling, and lesions. Although bleeding and discharge (response B) may be present, this would happen at a more advanced stage of infection.

Answer to Question 2

A
Senior centers across the United States provide activities for older adults, and most serve a meal once a day during the week while groups of seniors are at the centers. Eating alone and preparing meals for one person are often difficult adjustments for older adults. Meals on Wheels delivers meals to older adults but does not provide social contact (response B). The food stamps program is state and federally funded (response C). It provides food vouchers for low-income people of all ages. The USDA distributes food commodities, such as butter and cheese, to older adults and low-income families (response D). Neither of these programs provides the meal or opportunities for socialization.

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.
