Social distancing with the aim of avoiding infections and pre-serve critical care capacities during the COVID-19 pandemic has been implemented in Germany according to World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations from early March onwards. Limitations of physical contacts to reduce exposure to SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals were handled strictly, particularly in medical centers dealing with airway diseases, like rhinology and pneumology clinics. Such measures and reluctance to visit out- and inpatient services resulted in a 82% decrease in consultations to the 12 German oto-rhino-laryngological (ORL) centres forming our database during the 50 days following March 09 in 2020 if compared to the same period in 2019. Our data on CRS care underline reports on undertreatment of non-COVID-19 individuals with several different diseases during the current pandemic. We should try to reduce the toll these patients have to pay as much as possible. We established telemedicine, e-Health and artificial intelligence-supported triage for selecting the right patients for onsite-consultations and to advise patients in several demands.

ABSTRAK Penyakit Diabetes merupakan salah satu penyakit degeneratif yang terkait langsung dengan gaya hidup atau life style, Menurut World Health Organization (WHO), pada tahun 2014, 8,5% dari orang dewasa berusia 18 tahun dan lebih tua menderita diabetes. Indonesia berdasarkan wawancara yang terdiagnosis dokter sebesar 1,5%, dan Provinsi Sulawesi Selatan pada tahun 2014, jumlah Kasus Diabetes Mellitus (282 penderita) terdiri atas Diabetes mellitus yang terlapor (207 penderita), Diabetes mellitus yang tidak terlapor (160 penderita) dan Diabetes mellitus bergantung insulin (72 penderita) Peran dari tenaga kesehatan dan orang terdekat yang sangat dianggap penting oleh penderita juga sangat mempengaruhi perilaku dalam mengontrol kadar gula darah penderita DM Tipe II, karena jika tidak ada dukungan dan motivasi dan health edukasi dari tenaga kesehatan  serta orang terdekat maka penderita cenderung tidak memperhatikan status kesehatannya. Kegiatan ini sasaran utama adalah keluarga penderita Diabetes Mellitus yang aktif melakukan suntik insulin yang ada di Dusun Pattiro Desa Paccelekang Kec.Pattalassang Kab.Gowa . Salah satu cara yang ditempuh sebelum dilakukan pelatihan adalah dengan melakukan pertemuan dan pendataan terlebih dahulu tentang warga yang memiliki riwayat aktif melakukan suntik insulin. Pelatihan teknik dan keterampilan melakukan suntik insulin yang tepat Daya serap para peserta terhadap materi kegiatan cukup baik, hal ini terlihat dari kemampuan masyarakat menjawab dan mempraktikan Teknik Suntik Insulin..Kata kunci : Health Edukasi, Pelatihan, Suntik Insulin, Diabetes Mellitus  ABSTRACT Diabetes is a degenerative disease that is directly related to lifestyle, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2014, 8.5% of adults aged 18 years and older suffered from diabetes. Indonesia based on interviews with diagnosed doctors by 1.5%, and South Sulawesi Province in 2014, the number of Diabetes Mellitus Cases (282 patients) consisted of reported Diabetes Mellitus (207 cases), Unreported Diabetes Mellitus (160 cases), and Diabetes Insulin-dependent Mellitus (72 patients) The role of health workers and loved ones who are very important to sufferers also greatly affects behavior in controlling blood sugar levels for people with Type II diabetes, because if there is no support and motivation and health education from health workers and those closest to them then sufferers tend not to pay attention to their health status. This activity is the main target for families with Diabetes Mellitus who actively inject insulin in the Pattiro Hamlet, Paccelekang Village, Pattalassang District, Gowa Regency. One of the methods taken before training is to conduct meetings and collect data in advance about residents who have a history of actively injecting insulin. Training on techniques and skills for performing the right insulin injection The participants' absorption of the activity material was quite good, this can be seen from the community's ability to answer and practice the Insulin Injection Technique. Keywords: Health Education, Training, Insulin Injection, Diabetes                   Mellitus

The article analyzes the World Health Organization Report for 2000, with emphasis placed on the methodology used to analyze the indicators utilized to compare and classify the performance of the health systems of the 191 member countries. The Report's contribution was the compromise of monitoring the performance of the health systems of member countries, but because of the inconsistent way it was elaborated, and the utilization of questionable scientific evaluation methodologies, the Report fails to give a clear picture. A criterion-based methodology revision is imposed. The main problems in evidence are the choice of individual indicators of disparity in health that discount the population profile, the inadequate control of the impact of social disparities over the performance of the systems, the evaluation of the responsibility of systems that are only partially articulated to the right of the citizens, the lack of data for a great number of countries, consequently having inconsistent estimations, and the lack of transparency in the methodological procedures in the calculation of some indicators. The article suggests a wide methodological revision of the Report.

AbstractIn the coronavirus outbreak pandemic by COVID-19, the World Health Organization (WHO) has been issuing several guidelines through all government agencies. In line with those guidelines, social distancing in the population has been a major prevention practice, compelled by all government agencies worldwide. Despite strong recommendations to maintain at least one-and-a-half-meter distance between the persons, the guideline is not scrupulously followed. To overcome this situation, an IoT-based technical solution is proposed through this paper. PIR sensor is used for the detection of a target in the vicinity (1.5 m). Upon violation of social distancing norms, the system will trigger an audio alarm after the detection of the target object. The research paper model is prepared by considering the needs of the people. Many researchers are focusing on tracking affected persons, but few are focusing on the social distancing preventive. The suggested portable device will always notify the person who is violating the norm of 1.5 m. The proposed device will minimize the possibility of transmission and reduce the infection rate of COVID-19. The device uses a PIR sensor depending upon the applicability area of the human being.

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.


Coronavirus also known as COVID 19 or SARS N-CoV2 is a recent virus outbreak and pandemic in nature infecting and spreading among humans all around the earth. Since it’s a communicable disease it’s considered to be most dangerous in terms of spread regardless of its mortality rate. However, World Health Organization (WHO) has given guidelines to overcome the spread of the pandemic and at the same time, all the nations have followed serious actions and procedures by way of social distancing, lockdown, home quarantine etc. to curb the spread and to curtain the virus. The lockdown has stopped human activities and paralysed economic conditions but environmental rejuvenation is taking place at a great speed.

Indonesia menempati peringkat ke-6 dari 98 negara paling berpolusi di dunia pada tahun 2019. Di tahun tersebut, rata-rata AQI (Air Quality Index) sebesar 141 dan rata-rata konsentrasi PM2.5 sebesar 51.71 μg/m3 yang lima kali lipat diatas rekomendasi World Health Organization (WHO). Salah satu kota penyumbang polusi udara yaitu Jakarta. Berdasarkan data ISPU (Indeks Standar Pencemar Udara) yang diambil dari SPKU (Stasiun Pemantau Kualitas Udara) Dinas Lingkungan Hidup DKI Jakarta melampirkan pada tahun 2019, Jakarta memiliki kualitas udara sangat tidak sehat. Oleh karena itu perlu adanya model Artificial Intelligence dalam memperdiksi rata-rata tingkat zat berbahaya pada udara di DKI Jakarta. Salah satu algoritma yang dapat diterapkan dalam membuat model prediksi dengan menggunakan data timeseries adalah Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). Tujuan dari penelitian ini membangun model prediksi rata-rata ISPU di DKI Jakarta menggunakan metode LSTM yang berguna bagi para pemangku kepentingan dibidang lingkungan hidup khususnya mengenai polusi udara. Penelitian mengenai prediksi rata-rata ISPU di DKI Jakarta menggunakan metode LSTM, menghasilkan nilai evaluasi MAPE 12.28%. Berdasarkan hasil evaluasi MAPE yang diperoleh, model LSTM yang digunakan untuk prediksi rata-rata ISPU di DKI Jakarta masuk kedalam kategori akurat.
