Answer to Question 1

Alcohol requires no digestion and is readily absorbed by simple diffusion into the blood. Although some alcohol is absorbed from the stomach, most (80) is absorbed from the small intestine. The rate of alcohol absorption is influenced by whether or not there is food in the stomach (the presence of food in the stomach dilutes the alcohol and delays gastric emptying) and the concentration of alcohol in the beverage. Alcohol is most rapidly absorbed when the concentration is less than 30 (60 proof). Drinks with a high alcohol concentration delay gastric emptying, which slows absorption.

Answer to Question 2

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.
