What is the principal agency in the United States for protecting the health and safety of all Americans?

  2. DHHS

  3. FDA

  4. EPA

The correct answer is: DHHS

The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is responsible for protecting the health and safety of Americans. The other options, while important organizations, have more specific focuses. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) primarily focuses on disease control and prevention, while the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for ensuring the safety and efficacy of food, drugs, and medical devices. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) works towards protecting the environment and the health of citizens through environmental regulations. DHHS, on the other hand, oversees a variety of agencies and programs that aim to safeguard public health and well-being.
