Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
One of the Healthy People 2020 objectives is reducing the number of cases of HIV infection among adults and adolescents. Eliminating STDs from developed countries, reducing deaths from gonorrhea, and increasing awareness about HIV among lesbian females are not addressed by Healthy People 2020.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
HIV can be transmitted through breast milk. HIV is not transmitted by coughing, sneezing, or mosquito bites.
