Covid-19 is a new type of virus that was discovered in Wuhan, Hubei, China, in 2019. The new kind of virus was given the name coronavirus disease-2019, shortened to Covid-19. WHO declared this virus a pandemic on March 11, 2020. Various parties tried to in the prevention and control of COVID-19. However, the number of references offered and the variance of a policy in a study create problems again. People are confused to understand what efforts are suitable or recommended with trustworthy truths. Hence, this study uses Systematic Literature Reviews to find the most recommended efforts with reliable study sources, namely the Scopus journal and Google Scholar. The results of this study provide recommendations to the public about the efforts to prevent Covid-19, to reduce the spread of Covid-19, especially in Indonesia. 125 relevant journals were successfully reviewed, resulting in 37 Covid-19 prevention efforts. Based on the ranking method, 10 efforts are widely recommended in journals, namely: Social distancing, Quarantine/lockdown/LSSR (Large-scale social restrictions), WFH (Work From Home), Washing hands, Self-isolation, Wearing masks, Using handsanitizer, Spraying disinfectants, Maintaining immunity, and Not touch the face. The exciting thing that was also found in the research was that there were efforts that were not only built based on medical science but were also associated with beliefs such as Sawen Installation and Religious Ceremonies. Keywords: Covid-19; SLR; prevention of Covid-19. AbstrakCovid-19 merupakan virus jenis baru yang ditemukan di Wuhan, Hubei, China pada tahun 2019, virus ini diberi nama corona virus disease-2019 yang disingkat menjadi Covid-19, WHO (World Health Organization) menyatakan virus ini sebagai suatu pandemi pada 11 Maret 2020. Berbagai pihak berupaya dalam pencegahan dan penanggulangan Covid-19. Namun banyaknya referensi yang ditawarkan dan ketidak selarasan suatu kebijakkan dalam suatu studi, membuat permasalahan kembali di mana masyarakat bingung untuk mengerti upaya apa saja yang baik atau direkomendasikan dengan kebenaran yang dapat dipercaya.  Untuk menangani masalah tersebut maka dalam penelitian ini menggunakan Systematic Literature Reviews untuk mencari upaya yang paling banyak direkomendasikan dengan sumber studi yang terpercaya, yaitu jurnal Scopus dan Google Scholar. Hasil penelitian ini memberikan rekomendasi kepada masyarakat tentang apa saja upaya pencegahan Covid-19, untuk mengurangi penyebaran Covid-19 khususnya di Indonesia. 125 jurnal yang relevan berhasil direview, menghasilkan 37 Upaya pencegahan Covid-19. Berdasarkan metode pemeringkatan mendapatkan 10 upaya yang banyak direkomendasi dalam jurnal, yaitu: Social distancing, Karantina/lockdown/PSBB (Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar), WFH (Work From Home), Mencuci tangan, Isolasi diri, Memakai masker, Memakai handsanitizer, Menyemprotkan disenfektan, Menjaga imun, dan Tidak menyentuh wajah.

Corona Virus Disease (Covid-19) is a virus that is still related to the cause of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) which still has an RNA chain that mutates faster than DNA. World Health Organization (WHO) said that until July 26 2020 the number of people infected with the virus were 15,785,641 people. From the data, Indonesia ranked 24th with 97,286 positive cases and 4,714 people died. The data shows that Indonesia is higher than China as the country of origin of this virus began to be found. Indonesia implemented several policies in the fields of law, health and economics to deal with the Covid-19 outbreak. The Ministry of Health issued a regulation derived from PP21 / 20, namely Minister of Health Regulation No. 9 of 2020 concerning Large Scale Limitation Guidelines (PSBB). Muhammadiyah as a social organization through the One Muhammadiyah One Response (OMOR) program in handling coviders formed the Muhmmadiyah Covid-19 Command Center (MCCC) team to contribute to the prevention of covid-19 transmission that had been formed up to the Regional level. In addition to providing care for Covid-19 patients through Muhamamdiyah and Aisyah hospitals, MCCC also prepared the community to be prepared to face the Covid-19 pandemic. In Magelang regency, up to 27 July, PDP recorded 42 deaths, positive confirmation died 6 people and confirmed 7 people were treated. Therefore the importance of community preparedness to prevent Covid-19 transmission. Method: this research uses a quantitative approach with descriptive type. This research uses a survey method with questionnaire technique. Respondents in this study were 100 people. The results of this study indicate that residents of Muhamamdiyah in Magelang District 89% of respondents have received co-19 prevention information from MCCC, 59% showed understanding of the information provided, applying health protocols with 92% hand washing habits, doing 88% exercise, habit using masks 93 %, keep a distance of 98%, use hand sanitizer 86%, maintain a 96% sneezing ethic, able to manage stress 71%, and consume nutritious food 76%

AbstractThe Nipah virus disease is a lethal infection that has led to 40% to 75% fatalities in Malaysia, Bangladesh and India. The reports of human-to-human transmission documented in Bangladesh has raised the specter of pandemic potential and has caused the World Health Organization to list the Nipah virus as one of the pathogens to be considered for development of drugs and vaccines on urgent basis, neither of which exist against the Nipah virus as of now, although many proposals have been made and trials initiated. Given that there are established country-specific differences in the virus’ effects and fatalities, meeting the sudden need for a vaccine in case of an epidemic will require design, development and preparation for a peptide vaccine. Thus, we propose a protocol for creating peptide vaccines that can be tailor-made for these specific countries, an approach which is being advocated for the first time. Here, we analyze the surface proteins, Fusion protein and Glycoprotein, of the strains currently affecting the three countries on a large scale and determine the specific country-based epitope differences.

ABSTRACT The outbreak of Corona. Virus Disease 2019. (Covid-19) had had a wide-ranging impact on the conditions of security and public order in Indonesia and national resilience. This had also been responded by the World Health Organization (WHO) by establishing the status of a global pandemic in Covid-19 given the negative impact that striked many countries in the world.With qualitative research methods, information was obtained from relevant informants that, with existing policies, the Indonesian government had carried out various efforts in the framework of the detection, prevention .and control of this Covid-19. Some of them were with the Presidential Decree No. 9 of 2020 concerning Amendment to Presidential Decree No. 7 of 2020 concerning the Task Force for the Acceleration of Handling Covid-19, Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia No. 21 of 2020 concerning Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) in the framework of Accelerating Handling of Covid-19 and Presidential Decree No. 12 of 2020 concerning Determination of Non-natural Disasters of the spread of Covid-19 as a National Disaster.From the group policy analysis model, it was found that in the unstable condition of the community in the midst of this pandemic, the PSBB policy was supported by the existence of the Task Force as an appropriate step in the handling of Covid-19 in Indonesia compared to the lockdown option which could have a domino effect on the condition of the nation . In addition, this paper also simulated government policy options by implementing a policy pattern for implementing rapid tests, quarantine and hospital operations for handling Covid-19 (Option C) and physical distancing / social distancing policies with patterns of working from home (Option D) that could provide the result of a decrease in the number of Covid-19 cases in Indonesia. ABSTRAK Tersebarnya Corona Virus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) telah memberikan pengaruh pada kondisi keamanan dan ketertiban masyarakat di Indonesia dan ketahanan nasional. Hal ini sudah ditanggapi oleh World Health Organization (WHO) dengan menetapkan status pandemi global pada Covid-19 mengingat dampak negatif yang menyerang banyak negara di dunia.Metode penelitian kualitatif digunakan guna mendapatkan informasi dari narasumber terkait bahwa, dengan kebijakan yang ada, pemerintah Indonesia telah menjalankan berbagai upaya dalam rangka deteksi, pencegahan dan penanggulangan Covid-19 ini. Beberapa di antaranya adalah adanya Keppres No. 9 tahun 2020 tentang Perubahan atas Keppres No. 7 Tahun 2020 tentang Gugus Tugas Percepatan Penanganan Covid-19, Peraturan Pemerintah Republik Indonesia No. 21 tahun 2020 tentang Pembatasan Sosial Bersakala Besar (PSBB) dalam rangka Percepatan Penanganan Covid-19 dan Keppres No. 12 tahun 2020 tentang Penetapan Bencana Non-alam penyebaran Covid-19 sebagai Bencana Nasional.Model analisis kebijakan kelompok menemukan bahwa dalam kondisi masyarakat yang tidak stabil di tengah pandemi ini, kebijakan PSBB didukung dengan adanya Gugus Tugas tersebut merupakan langkah yang tepat dalam rangka penanganan Covid-19 di Indonesia dibandingkan opsi lockdown yang bisa memberikan efek domino pada kondisi bangsa. Selain itu, tulisan ini juga mensimulasikan opsi kebijakan pemerintah dengan menerapkan pola kebijakan pelaksanaan rapid test, karantina maupun operasional RS untuk penanganan Covid-19 (Opsi C) dan kebijakan physical distancing / social distancing dengan pola bekerja dari rumah (Opsi D) yang dapat memberikan hasil penurunan jumlah kasus Covid-19 di Indonesia.

Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO) Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus officially announced the coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, on March 11, 2020. To prevent the spread of coronavirus in Indonesia a Work From Home (WFH) policy, Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) was made. , as well as limiting the mobility of people from one area to another. One of them is PT Kereta Api Indonesia which directly reduces the number of long-distance train trips. Because of the dangers of the coronavirus and the issuance of government policies, citizens swiftly comply with the policies that have been issued. Therefore, it is necessary to know whether there is an influence on the passenger volume of the economi class Train (KA) before and after the Covid-19. The method used for known data is the Comparative Hypothesis Test. The decision obtained was that there was an influence on the volume of economi class train passengers before and after the Covid-19.

BACKGROUND Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has led to radical changes in social distancing awareness and affected social relationship. Due to the large-scale lockdown, home quarantine and maintaining social distance, it was anticipated that sexual activities would be severely impacted. In contrast, retrospective self-report studies showed that pornography use and autoerotism increased during the pandemic. OBJECTIVE The current study used big-data databases available on internet to investigate factors that modulated the pornography use under the pandemic. METHODS Daily relative search volume (RSV) data from Google Trends spanning from 24th Feb, 2020 to 13th Jul, 2020 were extracted. Traffic data of Pornhub was extracted from the website Pornhub Insights, spanning from 24th Feb, 2020 to 13th Jul, 2020. The parameter is defined as ‘percent change in traffic compared to an average day in 2019’. Number of daily new case of COVID-19 was extracted from database on Our World in Data. RESULTS Google Trends showed that the relative search volume (RSV) for pornography increased after late March 2020, which was dated close to the announcement of the pandemic by the World Health Organization. The number of daily new cases of COVID-19 was positively correlated with the traffic of Pornhub, a popular pornography website, and the RSV of ‘pornography’. Moderation analysis demonstrated a significant main effect of daily new case of COVID-19 and the RSV of ‘social distancing’ in predicting Pornhub traffic / RSV of ‘pornography’. Furthermore, the RSV of ‘social distancing’ significantly moderated the relationship between daily new cases and Pornhub traffic / RSV of ‘pornography’. A stronger COVID-pornography use association was observed in heightened social distancing awareness. CONCLUSIONS To conclude, increased pornography consumption during the pandemic was identified, which was associated with the severity of the pandemic. Social distancing awareness may be a key factor influencing interest and use of pornography. Further studies on the changes in sexual desire, and birth-rate control are worthwhile since the long-term public health may be affected by the changes in sexual behaviour during the pandemic.

Background: The cases of novel coronavirus (COVID- 2019)-infected pneumonia started since the 19th of December, 2019, in Wuhan (Central China). A large scale outbreak of the disease resulted in a pandemic. This outbreak of the COVID -19 disease has spread on a wide scale. World health organization (WHO) has identified the ongoing outbreak of corona virus disease (COVID 2019) as pandemic on 11 March 2020. Basic reproduction number (R0)- is one of the most important predictors of epidemic severity. It can help to understand the path of the epidemic and to assess the effectiveness of the various interventions to control the epidemic. The purpose of this study is to estimate R0 by using five methods based on the Indian COVID-19 dataset and compare them.  Methods: We obtained data on daily confirmed, recovered and deaths cases from official site of ministry of health and family welfare. We implemented 5 mathematical methods to calculate R0. We estimated the number of active cases till 14th of April. We also compare these methods to find out the best method to predict R0.Results: The estimated R0 for the AR, EG, ML, TD, and gamma-distributed methods were 1.0004, 2.102, 1.895, 1.872 and 1.46 respectively. The computed R0 in the TD method is closer to the actual R0 and have a good fit on data as confirmed with MSE criterion.Conclusions: Awareness of the basic reproduction number of COVID-19 is useful for controlling the spread of disease and for planning. It is therefore necessary to know the best method that has better performance.

COVID-19 (Coronavirus disease 2019) is a novel coronavirus which was first detected in late December 2019 in the Wuhan Province of China. This novel coronavirus, caused by a zoonotic beta-coronavirus (SARS-CoV-), is described as highly infectious. The World Health Organization (WHO) named the novel coronavirus as COVID-19 on February 11, 2020, and declared it as a “pandemic.” Almost all countries have undertaken wide-scale precautions so as to prevent or limit the spread of the virus, with most having practiced some form of “lockdown” along with “social distancing,” as well as dispensed recommendations for proper hand washing, avoiding touching the face, wearing facemasks, and using disposable tissues when either coughing or sneezing. Whereas it is well known that slowing the spread of this new epidemic requires the cooperation of all citizens, some people still seem to willfully disregard the rules and guidelines, and thereby ignore the health risks posed to both themselves and to others they come into contact with. People have responded differently to lockdown rules and social distancing practices. Whilst the majority follow the rules and recommendations with great care, others are more lax or simply refuse to comply. These differences might be accounted for according to a number of factors including personal, social, cultural, mental, and economic variables. Being persuaded to comply with preventive rules, especially those concerned with health-related behaviors, also bring certain other factors into play. Fear is one of those factors, and is one of the most powerful. It is well known that fear-based appeals can be effective in inculcating health behaviors, with many theories having been developed in this area. However, both the content of the message (the level of the fear it contains) and certain personal variables can determine the persuasive power of the fear appeal. It can even have an adverse effect if not properly applied. Many theories have been developed to address the persuasive effectiveness of the fear appeal (e.g., fear-drive theory, protection-motivation theory), and this study aims to discuss these individual differences in precautionary and preventive measures for the COVID-19 pandemic within the framework of the basic assumptions of these theoretical approaches.

The article considers the activities of the World Health Organization (WHO) in a pandemic caused by the spread of coronavirus infection (Covіd-19). Attempts by WHO and existing international formats to establish cooperation and coordination in confronting the new global threat can be traced. It states that in the face of many uncertainties of the consequences of coronavirus infection and the peculiarities of its proliferation, national governments have returned to the tools of barrier policy and border closures, making it difficult to coordinate actions within the global community. The factors influencing the state of global solidarity and the policy of the world’s leading players in WHO are analyzed. The focus is on the factor of U.S. — China relations, within which the dominant political novel is the Chinese footprint in Covid history and on factor of European strife observed between EU countries during the critical period of functioning of national healthcare systems. The actions of the governments of individual EU countries, Russia and the United States in stimulating national pharmacological corporations to create a vaccine for Covid infection and the problem of the information company regarding large-scale vaccination of the population are revealed.

Introduction Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has led to radical changes in social distancing awareness and affected social relationships. Owing to large-scale lockdown, home quarantine and social distancing requirements, it was anticipated that sexual activities would be severely impacted. However, retrospective self-report studies showed that pornography use and autoerotism increased during the pandemic. Aim This study used big-data databases available on the Internet to investigate factors that modulated pornography use during the pandemic. Methods Daily relative search volume (RSV) data from Google Trends for the period from 24 February 2020 to 13 July 2020 were extracted. Pornhub traffic data were extracted from the Pornhub Insights website, for the period from 24 February 2020 to 13 July 2020. The parameter was defined as ‘percent change in traffic compared to an average day in 2019’. The number of daily new cases of COVID-19 was extracted from the database on Our World in Data. Outcome measures The normality of the data was examined using the Shapiro-Wilk test. All variables included in this study were non-normally distributed. Therefore, non-parametric tests or parametric tests with bootstrapping were adopted where appropriate. Results According to Google Trends, the RSV for ‘pornography’ increased after late March 2020, which is close to the date when the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. The number of daily new cases of COVID-19 was positively correlated with the traffic of Pornhub, a popular pornography website, and the RSV for ‘pornography’. Moderation analysis demonstrated a significant main effect of daily new cases of COVID-19 and the RSV for ‘social distancing’ in predicting Pornhub traffic/RSV for ‘pornography’. Furthermore, the RSV for ‘social distancing’ significantly moderated the relationship between daily new cases and Pornhub traffic/RSV for ‘pornography’. A stronger COVID-pornography use association was observed with increased social distancing awareness. Conclusion Increased pornography consumption during the pandemic was observed, and it was associated with the severity of the pandemic. Social distancing awareness could be a key factor influencing interest in and use of pornography. Further studies on the changes in sexual desire and birth-rate control are worthwhile because long-term public health may be affected by the changes in sexual behaviour during the pandemic.
