The VAERS website lists this caveat to their database: "A report to VAERS does not mean that the vaccine caused the adverse event, only that the adverse event occurred sometime after vaccination." What does this mean?

Keeping in mind the life cycle of bacteriophages, consider the following problem: during the reproductive cycle of a temperate bacteriophage, the viral dna inserts into the bacterial chromosome where the resultant prophage behaves much like a trojan horse. it can remain quiescent, or it can become lytic and initiate a burst of progeny viruses. several operons maintain the prophage state by interacting with a repressor that keeps the lytic cycle in check. insults (ultraviolet light, for example) to the bacterial cell lead to a partial breakdown of the repressor, which in turn causes the production of enzymes involved in the lytic cycle. as stated in this simple form, would you consider this system of regulation to be operating under positive or negative control?

Cpr, or cardiopulmonary resuscitation, is a first-aid technique to save lives. it involves compressions of the patient's chest cavity. which description is the best description of the functions of chest compressions in cpr? chest compressions are done to pump the heart. chest compressions are done to strengthen the rib bones. chest compressions increase carbon dioxide inhalation. chest compressions allow the patient's muscles to wake up.
