Health Promotion includes all EXCEPT which option?

• A. Get out and walk/move/play
• B. Wearing face masks
• C. Washing hands often
• D. Anti-smoking campaign

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is to distinguish activities that promote long-term health and healthier environments from immediate protective measures. Health promotion aims to empower people to adopt healthy behaviors and create supportive surroundings. Encouraging people to get out, move, and play supports physical activity and overall well‑being; promoting regular handwashing reduces infections through hygiene education; anti‑smoking campaigns work to shift norms and reduce tobacco use through policy, education, and cessation support. Wearing face masks, while important for preventing disease transmission in specific situations, is primarily an infection‑control or personal protective behavior rather than a broad health‑promotion effort designed to sustain healthier choices across populations. So it doesn’t fit as a health promotion activity in this context.
