Q

Disadvantages of high risk strategies

A

Medicalization of prevention: people who thought they were healthy are being told they are not
Challenges and costs of interventions, start early in life but appear later
Results palliative and temporary, focus becomes to provide further preventative methods rather than determining the root cause
