Children are vulnerable to dangerous infections when their immune systems are severely weakened by other diseases.B. Children are particularly unconcerned with hygiene and therefore are the group most responsible for spreading the flu virus to others.C. The vaccinations received last year will confer no immunity to this year’s flu virus.D. Children who catch one strain of the flu virus and then recover are likely to develop immunity to at least some strains with which they have not yet come in contact.E.
