It investigates the possible significance of risk-benefit analysis in determining the appropriateness of the COVID-19 vaccination. It is argued that a comprehensive flexible approach to determining defectiveness that embraces risk-benefit can take into account the enormous public interest derived from the continued supply and availability of vaccines, as well as the benefits of immunity for both the individual and the community. The immunity-granting advantages of the COVID-19 vaccinations for both the individual and the community should be significant in any assessment of defectiveness if situations involving the liability of the vaccine do arise. Such a comprehensive, adaptable approach to defects that considers risk and benefit can be used to assess a vaccine's safety and potentially lessen its risks decreasing public trust in the vaccine update.

SMEs remain a veritable tool that generates employment opportunities. This study examined the impact of SMEs on employment creation in the Makurdi metropolis of Benue state. A sample size of 340 entrepreneurs was chosen from the population of entrepreneurs (SMEs) in the Makurdi metropolis. The study used logistic regression to analyse the impact of SME activities on employment creation or generation in the state and found that SMEs contribute significantly to employment creation in the state but are often faced with the challenges of lack of capital, absence of business planning, lack of confidence in the face of competition, unfavorable environment for the development of SMEs, high government taxes and inadequate technical knowledge. The study therefore recommended that the government should implement capital or credit enhancing programmes and an enabling environment for smooth running of the SMEs. Tax incentives should also be granted to infant enterprises, and tax administration should be monitored to avoid excessive tax rates imposed by tax collectors.

Agriculture has been assumed to be a vital sector for achieving food security and alleviating poverty. Rice is crucial and most cultivated cereal has a good potential to food self-sufficiency and food security. The production of rice is low in the district due to low attention given to the rice production and low agricultural technology adoption decision to rice production. Therefore, this research attempts to evaluate the determinants that affecting rice yield in the district employing cross-sectional field survey data gathered in 2022. A cross-sectional field survey was collected among 384 rice cultivators in the Fogera district, Amhara region. For the data analysis descriptive statistics and binary logit regression model were conducted. The results of binary logit regression presented the rice production was significantly affected by size of family, educational status, available family labor, livestock owned, access to extension, credit use, access to information, distance to nearest market, and distance to nearest road. Among these key underlying determinants educational status, available family labor, livestock owned, access to extension, credit use, and access to information were positively associated with rice production, whereas size of family, distance to nearest market, and distance to nearest road were negatively associated. The results evaluated the role of rice production at farm level due to higher yield and income could translate in to improved food security and grower’s welfare.
