ANSWER: A. relies on early detection and intervention

In primary prevention, they focus on averting poor health in the first place and on promoting good health. Primary prevention aims to prevent disease or injury before it ever occurs. Primary prevention by early detection and intervention through improved awareness, early clinical diagnosis, and organized screening for chronic diseases are among the key components of chronic diseases control, which, in turn, can lead to a decrease in chronic disease incidence and mortality in the population.
