A. I think the Industrial REvolution had a lot ot do with the cult of domesticity, because it caused the worlds of home and work to become seperate in a way that they had not been before. In 'america's Women' Gail Collins writes: 'In the first half of the nineteenth century, American women changed from colonial goodwives to people with more modern concerns.

A. Flu is typically a bird affliction, but pigs also have strains of flu that they carry. Flu virus have a characteristic tendency to recombine DNA in a way that occasionally allows it to thrive in new host species. This occasional event is meaningless unless the host species is nearby. In most developed nations, pigs and poultry do not exist near humans to a great extent, making host jumping infrequent. In less developed nations, like what can be found in rural east asia, pigs, ducks, chickens and people exist in extremely close quarters. This intense exposure of people with swine or poultry carrying flu virus creates the situation for host jumping. When the virus first transfers to humans, often it isn't terribly deadly since it isn't… [cont.]
