Answer to Question #164881 in English for Remi

Question

Read the following excerpt from the article "what a bad flu season could cost the us economy":creating a flu vaccine is a bit of a guessing game, because the shots take months to manufacture. each year in february, the world health organization (who) tries to predict what viruses may be circulating the following winter, a process that can change as bugs mutate. the current variant strains weren't detected until march and weren't found in large numbers before september, cdc director tom frieden told reporters last week. "this is not something that's been around before," he said.based on the cues you can see in the excerpt (that is, without doing further research), how would you rate credibility of the passage? write a short argument stating whether or not the information seems credible and objective. you are writing an argument, so be sure to include a thesis statement and at least one counter-argument. use specific details from the passage to support your answer.

Answer 1

The passage is important, particularly to the ministry of health. The information from the primary source, such as world health organization and centre for disease and control prevention, describes the effort needed to create vaccines for the outbreak of tropical diseases. The reports also show how much research must be conducted for diseases uncertainties and prepare for the possible best solutions. Therefore, the information seems credible because the CDC director himself had faced the media by telling how the researchers need to improve their research concept. Because bad flu has become the main issue to be addressed, this article explores the manufacturing time of vaccine based on its recurrent outbreak every new season. However, the research on getting the proper vaccines for recurrent bad flu outbreak is not comprehensive due to variant strains that were not detected until march, an incidence which led to large numbers of diseases cases before September.
