f. answer : b
surgical amputation of an extremity with osteosarcoma (bone cancer) is an example
in which when a disease is present the treatment (amputation) is done to reduce the
impact of disease by preventing the tumor from dissemination. vaccination for
rotavirus for children younger than the age of 1 year, sexual education program in
elementary schools, and increasing taxes for buying cigarettes represent examples
of primary prevention. screening for gestational diabetes after 24 weeks of pregnancy
is an example of secondary prevention.
