Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Healthy People 2020 has identified a national preparedness goal: Improve the Nation's ability to prevent, prepare for, respond to, and recover from a major health incident. To address this goal, Healthy People 2020 created related objectives to address preparation, prevention, response, and recovery: develop and maintain the workforce needed for national health security; ensure timely and effective communications; ensure prevention or mitigation of environmental and other emerging threats to health. These objectives were derived from National Health Security Strategy of the United States of America (NHSS), which stresses the importance of cross-border and global partnerships.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
