Prevention

Prevention refers to the proactive measures taken to avoid the occurrence of undesirable events or conditions. It involves strategies and activities aimed at reducing the likelihood of negative outcomes, such as diseases, injuries, or other harmful incidents. In the context of health, prevention encompasses a range of practices, including vaccination, health education, lifestyle changes, and screenings, designed to maintain and improve individual and community well-being.
