Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The Congressional Budget Office estimates that less than 2 of the cost of health care is related to medical malpractice. Studies by Zurich Insurance Company, Harvard University, and Dart-mouth University showed little, if any, impact on the cost of health care. The Harvard study showed patients were uncompensated in the presence of actual malpractice more frequently than physicians were held accountable in the absence of actual malpractice.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The principle of justice involves the fair distribution of care.

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.
