Health promotion and ______ share the goal of keeping people free of disease.

A) primary prevention
B) secondary prevention
C) tertiary prevention
D) public health

Health promotion and primary prevention both focus on preventing the onset of disease or illness before it occurs. Primary prevention includes interventions such as vaccination, regular exercise, and healthy eating habits that aim to prevent the first occurrence of illness or disease. Secondary prevention, on the other hand, focuses on early detection and treatment of an existing disease or condition. Tertiary prevention aims to manage and minimize the impact of chronic conditions and prevent their worsening. Public health is a broad field that includes all three levels of prevention, as well as other areas such as environmental health and policy development.
