Answer to Question 1

Answer: In New York v. Quarles, the Supreme Court stated that Miranda warnings need not be given in a situation
involving a threat to public safety. The Court held that if there is an objectively reasonable need to
protect the police or the public from immediate danger that the police could forgo the warning.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Evidence is not protected by the privilege unless the evidence is testimonial in nature. A defendant may
be forced to provide fingerprints, voice exemplars, blood tests, and so on. The Fifth Amendment applies
only to testimonial evidence. Testimonial evidence is evidence that only a witness provides. Any
physical evidence is not included in the privilege.

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.
