Replying to LO11009 --

I'm really interested in your comment that

Do you have a sense of their underlying reasons for resisting addressing
prevention measures? I'm a little wary of my own cynicism that jumps to
ask whether they are concerned about losing their income streams. Is it
perhaps that some of them don't feel appropriately trained to do
prevention? Is it the difficulty of clearly understanding the causation
questions here? or the probable complexity of the causation?
