Primary prevention focuses on preventing the onset of diseases or illnesses by promoting healthy behaviors and reducing exposure to risk factors. Immunizing against the flu is a primary prevention activity as it helps prevent the occurrence of flu and its complications. The other options involve detecting or managing pre-existing conditions and are more likely to be classified as secondary or tertiary prevention activities.
