Answer:

A. All these decisions by public officials and businesses are aimed at one goal: slowing down the spread of the virus to avoid overburdening a health care system that doesn't have the infrastructure to handle a sudden surge of tens of thousands of cases at once.

Explanation:

Flattening the curve means to avoid overloading our community's health care systems because of elevated rates of people needing to be hospitalized, and slowing the spread of this virus over time using social distancing and wearing masks.
