Interruption of transmission of disease is called:
# Interruption of transmission of disease is called:
A. Disease control
B. Disease eradication
C. Disease elimination
D. Disability limitation
The correct answer is C. Disease elimination.
Concept of Control
A. Disease control : The term 'disease control' describes (ongoing) operations aimed at reducing incidence, duration, decrease effects of disease, etc. Control activities may focus on primary prevention or secondary prevention. The concept of tertiary prevention is comparatively less relevant to control efforts. In disease control, the disease agent is permitted to persist in the community at a level where it ceases to be a public health problem according to the tolerance level of local population.
B. Disease elimination: Between control and eradication, an intermediate goal has been described, called 'regional elimination'. The term elimination is used to describe interruption of transmission of disease, eg. elimination of measles, polio and diphtheria from large geographic region or areas. Regional elimination is now seen as an important precursor of eradication.
C. Disease eradication: Eradication literally means to 'tear out by roots'. It is the termination of all transmission of infection by extermination of the infectious agent through surveillance and containment. As the name implies, eradication is an absolute process, and not a relative goal. It is an all or none phenomenon.
Phases of Public Health - Concept of risk factor

A. Disease control phase
B. Health promotional phase
C. Social engineering phase
D. Health for all phase
The correct answer is C. Social engineering phase.
Four phases of public health have been recognized:
A. Phase one: Disease Control Phase (1880-1920)
The 19th century Public Health- matter of sanitary legislation and sanitary reform, safe water supply and waste disposal.
B. Phase Two: Health promotional phase (1920-1960)
At the beginning of the 20th century, the concept of health promotion emerged. As a result, in addition to disease control activities, one more goal was initiated. e.g. Maternal and child health, School health, mental health, occupational health and rehabilitation services.
C. Phase Three: Social Engineering phase (1960-1980)
Chronic conditions such as cancer, Diabetes mellitus (DM), cardiovascular diseases (CVD), and alcoholism, drug addiction occurred. These chronic health problems could not be tackled by the traditional approaches to public health i.e. isolation, immunization, and disinfection) nor they can be explained on the basis of germ theory (biomedical) of disease. The concept of risk factors (social, environmental, genetic and lifestyle) came into action as determinants of disease.
D. Phase four: Health for all phase (1980-2000)
Primary Health care, Health for all (HFA)- Health for all meant that every individual should have access to Primary Health Care
