The Covid-19 virus is one of the deadliest viruses and kills almost every country. As a precautionary measure, the government provides policies that must be obeyed by all levels of society. According to WHO (World Health Organization) standards, the policy is known as the 5M, namely, wearing masks, washing hands, maintaining distance, reducing and reducing mobility. The policy must be applied to the daily activities of the community. Sidoarjo is one of the cities in the red zone recently. Data shows that there are more than 24.000 cases of COVID-19. For this reason, the Sidoarjo government applies 5M very strictly when people are carrying out worship. When the community does not implement it, the administrators of the place of worship will reprimand and give directions to the community. The result is that people in Jati Village apply 5M, including when carrying out worship such as congregational prayers, Friday prayers, and so on. The mosque management always provides masks for worshipers, as an anticipation for people who lose or forget not to bring masks. The purpose of this research is to analyze the rationality of people who apply 5M when worshiping in Jati Sidoarjo Village. Qualitative method using primary and secondary data sources. The theory used is the theory of Max Weber regarding the action of rationality. (Virus Covid-19 merupakan salah satu virus yang mematikan dan memakan korban hampir di setiap negara. Sebagai langkah antisipasi pemerintah memberikan kebijakan yang harus dipatuhi oleh seluruh lapisan masyarakat. Sesuai standart WHO (World Health Organization) kebijakan tersebut dikenal dengan istilah 5M yaitu, memakai masker, mencuci tangan, menjaga jarak, menjauhi kerumunan dan mengurangi mobilitas. Kebijakan tersebut diterapkan pada aktivitas masyarakat sehari-hari. Sidoarjo merupakan salah satu kota yang berada di zona merah beberapa waktu terakhir. Data menunjukkan bahwa terdapat jumlah lebih dari 24.000 kasus covid-19. Untuk itu pemerintah Sidoarjo menerapkan 5M dengan sangat ketat tidak terkecuali saat masyarakat melaksanakan ibadah. Ketika masyarakat tidak menerapkan, maka pengurus tempat ibadah akan menegur dan memberikan arahan pada masyarakat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan masyarakat di Desa Jati menerapkan 5M, termasuk saat menjalankan ibadah seperti, sholat jamaah, sholat jumat, dan sebagainya. Adapun pengurus masjid selalu menyediakan masker untuk jamaah, sebagai antisipasi bagi masyarakat yang kehilangan atau lupa tidak membawa masker. Tujuan dari penelitian yaitu, menganalisis mengenai rasionalitas masyarakat menerapkan 5M saat beribadah di Desa Jati Sidoarjo. Metode kualitatif dengan menggunakan sumber data primer dan sekunder. Teori yang digunakan adalah teori dari Max Weber mengenai tindakan rasionalitas.)

ABSTRAK Malaria merupakan salah satu penyakit yang terus endemik di beberapa daerah di Indonesia walaupun pemerintah telah melakukan berbagai usaha untuk mengobati dan mencegah malaria. World Health Organization (WHO) menargetkan insidensi kasus malaria pada tahun 2030 dapat turun hingga 90% dibandingkan tahun 2015.Asmat merupakan salah satu daerah endemik tinggi dan menjadi salah satu daerah target program eliminasi malaria, namun belum ada publikasi data rinci terkait malaria di Asmat, Papua. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui prevalensi malaria di Asmat pada tahun 2017 dan melihat tren kejadian malaria yang merupakan salah satu indikator evaluasi program eliminasi malaria di Indonesia. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif observasional yang dilakukan selama pelaksanaan kegiatan Kuliah Kerja Nyata - Peduli Bencana (KKN-PB) Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), pada tanggal 17 Maret hingga 30 April 2018 di Asmat, Papua. Penelitian dilakukan dengan analisis data sekunder dan observasi. Data sekunder diambil dari Dinas Kesehatasn Kabupaten Asmat, kemudian dianalisis dan dipaparkan secara deskriptif. Dilakukan pula observasi lingkungan di Distrik Agats, Atsj, dan Sawaerma untuk mengetahui kemungkinan faktor-faktor risiko malaria. Pada tahun 2017, prevalensi malaria di kabupaten Asmat yaitu 12,37% dengan 7,90 % kasus malaria klinis dan 4,46% kasus malaria yang telah tegak diagnosisnya berdasarkan hasil pemeriksaan laboratorium. Prevalensi tersebut meningkat dibandingkan tahun 2016. Pusat Kesehatan Masyarakat (Puskesmas) Atsj merupakan puskesmas dengan prevalensi malaria tertinggi, yaitu sebesar 27,70%. Kejadian malaria ini kemungkinan dipengaruhi oleh lingkungan fisik (suhu, kelembaban, kerapatan dinding rumah, pengunaan kawat kassa, curah hujan), lingkungan biologi (adanya semak dan rawa), lingkungan kimia (salinitas dan pH), serta kebiasaan masyarakat. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa penanganan malaria di Asmat masih menjadi tantangan besar bagi petugas kesehatan dan pemerintah. Diperlukan penelitian lebih lanjut untuk mengetahui faktor penyebab masih tingginya kejadian malaria agar kebijakan yang diambil lebih tepat.  KATA KUNCI prevalensi; malaria; endemik; Asmat; Papua ABSTRACT Malaria is still an endemic disease in Indonesia, despite years of government efforts to cure and prevent malaria. World Health Organization (WHO) has a goal to reduce malaria case incidence globally at least 90% in 2030 compared with 2015.Asmat is one of the high endemic areas in Indonesia, making Asmat one of the target areas for malaria elimination programs. However, the published data regarding malaria in Asmat is limited. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of malaria in Asmat in 2017 and assess the trend of malaria prevalence, as an indicator in evaluating malaria elimination programs. This study was descriptive observational research which was performed from March 17th until April 30th 2018, as part of Kuliah Kerja Nyata - Peduli Bencana (KKN-PB) Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), in Asmat Regency. This study was using secondary data analysis and environmental observation. Secondary data was obtained from Department of Health in Asmat Regency and presented descriptively. Environmental observation in Agats, Atsj, and Sawaerma District was also conducted to find out the possible risk factors of malaria. In 2017, malaria prevalence in Asmat was 12.37% with 7.9% cases being clinically diagnosed malaria, and the other 4.46% laboratory diagnosed malaria. The prevalence in 2017 was higher than in 2016. Among all the districts in Asmat, Atsj had the highest prevalence (27.70%). Malaria prevalence was possibly affected by multiple factors, such as physical environment (temperature, humidity, houses’ wall density, and the use of wire net), biological environment (house surrounded by bush or swamp), chemical environment (pH and salinity), and habits in community. These findings suggest that malaria control is still a big challenge for health-care workers and government. Further research is needed to study the exact causes of high malaria prevalence in Asmat, so that more appropriate policies can be done to overcome the problem.KEYWORDS prevalence; malaria; endemic; Asmat; Papua

In malaria endemic areas, pregnant women are more susceptible to infection with malaria parasites than non-pregnant women. The World Health Organization (WHO) in 2014 estimated that 10,000 maternal deaths each year were associated with malaria infection during pregnancy. The aim of the study was to describe the incidence of malaria in pregnant women at the Boven Digoel District General Hospital, Papua. Methods This research uses a descriptive type of research. Samples were taken as many as 92 pregnant women who were taken by accidental sampling. Collecting data by using a questionnaire sheet. Data analysis was carried out univariate and bivariate. The results showed that from 78 pregnant women who were positive for malaria, most of them suffered from anemia as many as 51 people (65.4%) and 27 people did not suffer from anemia (34.6%). For the incidence of abortion from 78 pregnant women who were positive for malaria, most of them did not experience an abortion as many as 62 people (79.5%) and 16 people had an abortion (20.5%). For the habit of being out of the house at night, from 78 pregnant women who were positive for malaria, most of them were always outside at night as many as 41 people (52.6%) and 37 people (47 people) were not out of the house at night. ,4%). The conclusion of this study, the description of the incidence of malaria in pregnant women mostly suffer from anemia, do not have abortions and are always outside the house at night. The advice that can be given is that malaria in pregnant women must be eradicated immediately so that the MCH program made by the government can be successful and the health of pregnant women can be maintained

The COVID-19 pandemic has been considered to be very phenomenal as the period is marked with some unimaginable Health crises across the globe. COVID-19 has been a global Public Health threat widely affecting the entire populace irrespective of the class and sex across the region of the world. This has attracted lots of sensitization and interventions from the appropriate approved Health agencies such as World Health Organization, Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and others to better inform the general public about the nature and mode of operandi of the pandemic virus in the absence of an accepted therapeutics and vaccines as at the time of this study. However, the media is flooded with information; not excluding some misconceptions about COVID-19 pandemic. These conflicting information are taken by the general public without reservation, hence, the study investigated the level of awareness of the public about COVID-19 virus, in relation to general knowledge, signs/symptoms, associated risk factors, transmission/spread and misconceptions. The study was delimited to Nigerians who had access to the internet. The study instrument was a self-structured questionnaire, validated by experts in this area. A Cronbach Alpha revealed a reliability index of 0.92. The online descriptive survey on the awareness level of the public, utilized Google form technique to create the questionnaire which was sent through emails and links to various social media and private platforms. Five research questions and hypothesis guided the study. A combination of primary and secondary data sources aided the study. Modified Likert scale (four points) was used and a criterion mean of 2.5 was used as the cut-off for either aware/agree (>2.5) or not aware/disagree (<2.5). Statistical Package for Social Science version 21 was used to estimate descriptive and inferential statistics at 5% alpha level for deduction. A response rate of 99.1% was obtained and a sample size of 347 was used. The study outcome suggests many interesting phenomena concerning public awareness about the COVID-19 pandemic. There is a high level of awareness of COVID-19. However, there is a need for the government and media platforms to curtail the spread of fake news and correct the misconceptions about COVID-19 among her citizens in the region.

<p>After World Health Organization named COVID-19 pandemic as a &ldquo;Pandemic of Misinformation&rdquo;, a common man has to cope with superfluous advices, remedies and, most of all, conspiracy theories, that seem undermining even the genuine recommendations of experts and authorities. This is a high time that timely corrective action, preaching social responsibility, relying on science and technology, and using mass media as channels to communicate the truth, may be used as weapons by the government in the battle against COVID-19 infodemic.</p>
