Answer to Question 1

A
The administration of hepatitis B vaccine is an example of an immunization against a communicable disease with a focus on preventing the disease. Health promotion is a broad concept involving action that enhances the quality of life. Disease management involves the treatment of pre-existing health alterations. Risk assessment is the collecting of data to identify and prevent complications related to health issues.

Answer to Question 2

C
Containing or preventing epidemics is a narrow focus that involves limited populations. Current broadened focus would include early detection and treatment of disease, prevention of disease, and health promotion.
