Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS in February 2010 recommended several strategies to assist with the achievement of an HIV-free generation. Strategies and policies include early screenings addressing at-risk women. Although useful, the remaining options do not directly address the stated strategies.

The selected symptoms most closely resemble those of adjustment disorder with depressive features. Aggression is more impulsive in nature and delusions are related to psychotic condi-tions.
