feedback
1 illness-prevention activities focus on avoiding a specific disease. a food diary is
a health-promotion activity.
2 although cancer is a disease, it is assumed that a person joining a support group
would already have the disease; therefore, this is not disease prevention but
treatment.
3 administering immunization for hpv is an example of illness prevention.
4 teaching a diabetic patient about diet is a treatment for diabetes; the patient
already has diabetes, so it cannot prevent diabetes.
