Which section is responsible for preventing disease non-battle injuries (DNBI)?

• A. Preventive Medicine
• B. Mental Health
• C. Veterinary Services
• D. Logistics

Answer: (A)

The idea here is to keep people healthy through proactive public health measures that prevent illness and injuries in daily duty and during operations. Preventive Medicine handles disease surveillance, immunizations, prophylaxis, sanitation, water quality, food safety, vector control, environmental health, and general occupational health. It plans and executes programs to reduce the risk of illnesses and non-battle injuries, educates units on health risk reduction, and coordinates vaccination and preventive care. Mental Health focuses on psychological well-being and resilience, not the broad umbrella of disease and non-battle injury prevention. Veterinary Services covers animal health and related food-safety issues, while Logistics manages supply and movement support. So the section best suited to prevent disease non-battle injuries is Preventive Medicine.
