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.
