Basically primary prevention of smoking is what can be done to prevent diseases associated with the human body from occuring. It is implemented by an individual stopping smoking. An individual should also ensure their oral hygiene is improved as well as eating more fresh fruit and vegetables! Hope this helps

The difference between primary and secondary smoking is very simple. Primary smoking is actually smoking the cigarette yourself, whereas secondary or second hand smoking is inhaling fumes of other smokers around you, whilst you are not actually smoking the cigarette. That is why the smoking ban was introduced and more and more smokers are smoking in smoking shelters. Which, not only provides shelter for them when they are smoking outside, but it also protects non smokers from the harmful fumes.
Isolation of a child with measles belongs to the secondary level of prevention, which aims to reduce the impact of a disease that has already occurred by limiting its spread to others.

Smoking causes a multitude of health problems, so not smoking prevents health problems.
Givinging a patient heparin or another antithrombotic therapy after an orthopedic surgery to prevent a blood clot would be an example of primary prevention in a hospital.
Levels of Prevention: (Summary- the easiest way to remember these for most conditions is Primary=Prevention, Secondary=Screening, and Tertiary=Treatment; smoking is just a little special because you don't need to screen for it) -Primary = strategies aiming to prevent new cases (e.g. increasing prices of tobacco products, using the profits to fund tobacco control programs, implementing smoke-free policies, restricting advertising campaigns that promote smoking, etc.) -Secondary = smoking cessation (e.g. cessation programs, support groups, nicotine gum (although its effectiveness is very debatable), etc.) -Tertiary = treatment of complications (e.g. pulmonary rehabilitation, home oxygen tanks, anything that prolongs the lives of people with smoking-related chronic conditions) Hope this helps! All the best! :)
