Medical education in the United States has focused almost exclusively on curative medicine, while preventive care
has been given scant attention. This is misguided. Medical schools should invest as much time in teaching their
students how to prevent illness as in teaching them how to cure it. Which of the following, if true, most strengthens
the argument above?
A) Many contagious diseases can be prevented with vaccines.
B) In 1988, for every three cents the United States spent on prevention, it spent 97 cents on curative treatment.
C) The number of students enrolled in medical school is the highest it has ever been.
D) More people die each year from disease than from accidental causes.
E) As the population grows, the number of doctors in certain specialties has not been keeping pace.
OA after some discussion.
