Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Healthy People 2010 includes goals related to reducing vaccine-preventable diseases and addressing emerging antimicrobial resistance, making choice D the correct answer. Choice A is incorrect because while the overall goal of Healthy People 2010 is indeed to promote health and prevent disease, the specific area of focus listed here is communicable disease. Choice B is not broad enough to capture the full scope of the communicable disease focus, and while sexual history is certainly relevant for some communicable diseases, it is not the only factor involved. Choice C is incorrect as states already had the authority to regulate communicable disease prevention prior to 2010.
