Background: Aedes aegypti mosquitoes like to put their eggs in clean water so it is necessary to pay attention to the condition of the shelter of the water to always be closed because the water reservoir is in a closed condition it is less likely for the larvae to breed. Based on observation of 5 patient's house got mosquito larvae at water reservoir, other than that water reservoir left open and water quality slippery. This study aims to determine the relationship between water and aqueduct collection in the presence of Aedes aegypti larvae in the Work Area of ??Puuwatu Health Centre inKendari. Methods:This type of research is a quantitative research with cross sectional study approach. The population is 265 and the sample is 72 respondents using random sampling technique Results:The results in this study indicate that the statistical water storage test results X2 count 36.217 > X2 table 3.841 and water channel value X2 count 16,774 > X2 table 3,841. So it is concluded that there is a connection of water reservoirs and waterways with the presence of Aedes aegypti larvae in the Work Area of ??Puuwatu Health Centre in Kendari. Conclusion: Suggested to the family should pay attention to environmental sanitation that can provide breeding place mosquito larvae breeding such as water and water ditch. In addition, the family must adjust the area of ??the house with the number of occupants in the house.

Mosquitoes have a very important meaning in the health sector because of their role as vectors of various diseases. Diseases transmitted by mosquitoes include dengue fever, malaria and filariasis. These three diseases are transmitted from one person to another through vector intermediaries. Vector is a creature that acts as an intermediary for transmitting   diseases. Tebing Tinggi Village is a densely populated area. The density of the population as well as the constraints of clean water make a lot of water reservoirs to store daily water needs. This can potentially be a breeding ground for mosquito larvae. This study was conducted to determine the density of mosquito larvae, to find out the percentage of house index and container index. This study used a visual method, with a cross sectional approach. Based on the results of research from 18 houses (19.78%) that were larvae positive from 91 houses examined and found 22 containers (5.78%) positive larvae from 380 containers examined. 331 containers of larvae were found in the reservoir of deep water as much as 18 containers (5.43%) and as many as 49 containers of  larvae were found in the external water reservoir (12.24%). The density of mosquito larvae in Tebing Tinggi area is categorized as being with density figures 3 and 4. The amount on the surface of the presence of mosquito larvae in water reservoirs in the house should  the community pay more attention to the cleanliness of water reservoirs and to close water storage so that they are not breeding grounds.

The research samples were all mosquito larvae andcontainers found. The research respondents were all cleaning services. Data werecollected by interviewing and filling in questionnaires, observing water reservoirsand identifying the types of mosquito larvae in microscope. Results A total of 40containers were found in Punti Kayu Nature Park. There were 8 containers that wereindoors (20%) and 32 containers were outdoors (80%) with 17 containers containedlarvae. Of all the containers that were positive for larvae, 6 were filled with clearwater and 11 were filled with turbid water. The number of larvae found were 358larvae outdoors and 82 larvae indoor with a total of 440 mosquito larvae with thegenus Culex spp. and Aedes albopictus species. The index of mosquito larvae wereobtained FLI (Free Larva index)=66,67%, HI (House Index)=33,33%, CI (ContainerIndex)=16,67%, BI (Breteau Index)=33.33% from the 3 buildings examined. Fromthese results, it was obtained DF (density figure) or density level of 5. There were 40containers that could be habitats for Culex spp. and Aedes albopictus. ConclusionThe knowledge, attitude and behavior of the cleaning services were good. Thenumber of mosquito larvae could be influenced by the frequency of cleaning and thelack of knowledge of the cleaning services.

The Aedes aegypti larva which is not monitored develops into an adult mosquito, causing Dengue Fever. Eradication using fogging, abate powder, has an effect on the environment. Researchers are looking for a safe and effective natural larvicidal solution using papaya plants. Papaya plants contain the enzyme papain substance, the effect of papain protease can kill the larva of Aedes aegypti. This study aims to determine the effect of water soaking papaya bark on the death of Aedes egypti larvae. Research location in Curup Tengah District. Quasi-experimental type, Chi-square analysis, calculating odds ratio, Chi-square test. Approximately (94.4%) there were 34 dead larvae, a small portion (5.5%) had 2 live larvae, from 36 larvae of Aedes aegypti in 50 ml of water soaking the papaya bark under 1 minute. Chi-square analysis results P value = 0.04 <α0.05, there is a significant effect of water soaking papaya bark on larvae death of Aedes aegypti. The value of p value = 0.043, has the influence of water soaking papaya bark, odds ratio = 4.10 times. It is expected that the community will play a role in eradicating the larva of Aedes aegypti, by making a marinade of papaya bark poured into a water reservoir Keywords: Papaya bark, larvae of Aedes aegypti

Internet-based platforms are increasingly used to collect qualitative data. We conducted a quasi-experimental study to explore whether data collection mode affects data content and data collection costs. Participants ( N = 171) were assigned systematically to one of four modes—(1) in-person (control), (2) online video–based, (3) online chat–based, (4) online e-mail/message board-based—and randomized to individual interview (IDI) or focus group (FG). We conducted 48 IDIs and 24 FGs about medical risk during pregnancy with women in the southeast United States. We found audiovisual (in-person and online video) modes generated significantly greater volumes of data than online text–based modes. However, there were no significant differences in the thematic content among modes, for IDIs or FGs. Online data collection generally cost more per event without travel; in-person IDIs/FGs were more expensive if including travel. Findings offer empirical data for considerations of online versus in-person qualitative data collection.

This research was conducted in January - February 2019. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of mangrove extracts on stems and fruit on the growth of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae and to know Lethal Concentration LC50 and Lethal Time LT50. The method used is the experimental method, with the experimental design is a completely randomized design (CRD). The treatment of nipah fruit and stem extract concentrations was 3%, 6% and 9% with contact time of 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes 60 minutes, 120 minutes, 480 minutes and the number of replications 3 times with 2 trials. To find out (LC50) and (LT50), the data was analyzed using the SPSS program. The sample of this research is stem and nipah fruit taken in the mangrove area of Kayu Ara Village, Siak Regency. Aedes aegypti larvae are taken at a water reservoir next to the Arfaunas Mosque in Tampan District. The results showed that the stem and nipah fruit extracts had effective killing power against Aedes aegpti larvae. The extract that was more effective in killing mosquito larvae was the nipah fruit extract compared to the nipah stem extract seen in the number of larval deaths with LC50 = 3.398% and LT50 = 3.540 hours. This shows that the level of toxicity is quite toxic.

Objective: During the COVID-19 pandemic, physical distancing is one of the non-pharmaceutical measures that was recommended to reduce COVID-19 spread. Studies regarding physical distancing intervention and its effectiveness in Thailand have rarely been reported. This study aimed to evaluate physical distancing compliance among newly developed media interventions. Methods: We used accidental sampling and the data collection method was observation via CCTV, at the university canteen. Three interventions, including an attractive picture, a flashing red-light, a speech alarm sound and the conventional intervention were employed to 400 customers. Each intervention was monitored in non-prime hours. Results: The quasi-experimental study of 400 participants, the success rate of developed intervention including a flashing red light (6.0%, p = 0.279), an attractive picture (5.0%, p = 0.445) and a speech alarm sound (4.0%, p = 0.683) in promoting physical distancing compliance was not statistically significant from conventional intervention (2.0%). However, there was a statistically significant enhancement of physical compliance in some marking positions in our intervention. Conclusion: The effectiveness of the innovative device was not statistically significant to enhance physical distancing compliance among customers of the university canteen. The compliance statistically significantly enhances in some marking points. The integration of the use of media into conventional interventions provides an alternative for enhancing physical distancing.

OBJECTIVE: to identify the contribution made by a refresher course on the assessment of chronic wounds, offered through the Moodle virtual learning environment (VLE), to the knowledge relating to this issue of nursing lecturers and nurses linked to higher education.METHOD: a prospective, quasi-experimental study, with data collection before and after the educational intervention. The study was undertaken in three stages using the Moodle VLE. The sample was made up of 28 participants who answered the pre-test on the knowledge, devised in accordance with international guidelines on chronic wounds. Afterwards, the refresher course was offered (intervention) and was accessed in accordance with individuals' schedules, during the established time period. At the end of the course, 26 participants answered the post-test. Those who did not participate in the post-tests were excluded from the study, as it is pairwise analysis of the sample.RESULT: the participants obtained, on average, 55.5% of correct answers in the pre-test on their knowledge, and 73.4% in the post-test, this difference being statistically significant. There was a negative correlation between the time of experience in lecturing and the performance in the test on their knowledge.CONCLUSION: the participation in the online refresher course contributed to improving the lecturers' performance in the test on their knowledge, in relation to the recommendations for assessing chronic wounds, based in scientific evidence.
