Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Feedback:
Some viral infections are acute and controlled by the host's defense mechanisms; others spread throughout the body and cause severe tissue damage or result in chronic illness.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
Infectious disease refers to the pathology or pathologic events that result from the invasion and multiplication of microorganisms in a host. Toxins and enzymes produced by the microorganisms cause tissue injury. The injury produces manifestations of infection: fever, rashes, malaise, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, purulent discharge from wounds; a hot, red, tender area around wounds or puncture sites; aches and pains; or total body collapse.

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.
