Because of a quality control problem, a supplier of flu vaccines will not be able to ship any supplies of the vaccine for the upcoming flu season. This will create a shortage of flu vaccines and result in a loss of productivity as workers call in sick.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument above?

(A) The quality control problem of the supplier is not as severe as some experts had initially predicted.

(B) Other suppliers of flu vaccine have not been affected by the quality control problem.

(C) Last year there was also a shortage of flu vaccine available.

(D) The price of flu vaccines is expected to fall in the next ten years.

(E) The flu season is expected to last longer than usual this year.

We need to pay detailed attention to this question in order to resolve it.

Option A:- Incorrect
If the quality control problem of the supplier can be that serious up to an extent of affecting the productivity if the workers,then we can't conclude that it isn't a serious case but this rather strengthens the argument.

Option B:- correct
The problem statement haven't mentioned anything relative to other vaccine suppliers. It only identified a particular supplier. This meets the requirement of the question.

Option C:- Incorrect
The market situation in terms of supply for the previous year was not specified. Hence, this is not relevant to the scenario presented in the question.

Option D:- Incorrect
This question contains no valid point of interest. Given the context of our reference point, the argument has not pointed to the price factor.

Option E:- Incorrect
It is possible to conclude an expectation of extended flu season due to the shortage of supply. But this is a serious fact that supports question statement.
