Which of the following can be logically inferred based on the information above?

A) Following the exercise awareness campaign will prevent heart disease.    Not our answer    ( This is an example of an extreme answer and cannot be logically inferred based on the information above. )

B) The Health awareness campaign played some role in the observed drop in heart disease.     This is our answer    ( This statement can be inferred from the stimulus because we have data to back this claim. )

C) Many Argonians who started following the campaign's program were already healthy to begin with.    Not our answer     (From the stimulus we do not know anything about the Argonians pre- conditions, hence this statement cannot be inferred from the stimulus.)

D) Those Argonians who developed heart disease between 2006 and 2011 were unaware of the exercise campaign.    Not our answer     (This could be true but at the same time it could be false also, there could be cases where people despite of taking part in the health program ended up developing heart disease due to other factors.)
 
E) Awareness of health issues is important for visibility and community.    Not our answer    ( Irrelevant to the argument and cannot be inferred .)
