Answer:

DNA samples might be planted and it is possible to synthesize a nucleotide sequence to incriminate a person

Explanation:

In a criminal case, DNA evidence may be considered to be fraudulent because DNA samples might be planted around the crime scene. Moreover, specific genomic profiles of an individual stored in the database can be used to manufacture a DNA sample matching this profile without the necessity to obtain tissues of the person. In consequence, DNA evidence may be considered to be imperfect. Nonetheless, it is important to highlight that DNA evidence is one of the most important modern advances used during criminal trials, and it has proven to be a very useful (and effective) tool available in law enforcement.

The vaccine that may be administered to him at 14 years old is a dose of tetanus toxoid as this can present as pain from injection site. Since there is nothing said about the number of doses that he received, the patient should receive Tdap (tetanus, diphteria, and acellular pertussis) as stated from the Center of Disease Control and Prevention guideline for tetanus.
