Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

o All law can be divided into two categories, civil law and criminal law.
o They are distinguished by their goals.
The criminal justice system is concerned with protecting society from harm by preventing and prosecuting crimes. The government is responsible for
prosecuting a person who commits a criminal act. The accused person is the
o party who responds. The standard of proof is beyond a reasonable doubt and the remedy available to the victim is punishment of the offender, through a fine, incarceration, or probation.
Civil law, which includes all types of law other than criminal law, is concerned
o with disputes between private individuals and between entities.
Civil lawsuits are initiated by an individual or corporation who is injured by a private wrong. These individuals are called plaintiffs. The party who responds is
o the person who caused the alleged harm. The standard of proof in a civil case is preponderance of the evidence. The remedy is usually financial compensation for the harm caused to the plaintiff.

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.
