AbstractThere are numbers of Indonesian Youtube Videos that show steps to wear and remove Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for Corona Virus Disease (COVID19). However, the conformity with the current guidelines remains unknown. This paper aims to determine the validity of these videos based on the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines. We searched on the Youtube website for videos in donning and doffing PPE for droplet precaution and selected the videos using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Included videos were then evaluated with a checklist derived from WHO course on donning and doffing PPE for COVID-19 and WHO recommendation on PPE for Covid-19. The search that was undertaken resulted in 66 videos, and 40 videos were included for evaluation. There is no significant difference in the donning and doffing score between account types (personal, organizational/institutional, news). The average number of viewers of all videos is more than 2700 viewers. The average score of donning is less than 70% of the total score, and the average doffing score is under 65%. The vast majority of the videos do not follow the WHO recommendation on the PPE type and use more equipment than recommended. There are several contamination risks shown by the videos. Indonesian Youtube videos on PPE procedures for COVID-19 must be selected carefully to be used as an instructional or educational media since most of it presents a high risk of cross-contamination.Keyword: personal protective equipment, audiovisual, cross-contamination, trainingAbstrakTerdapat video dalam Bahasa Indonesia yang terkait cara memakai dan melepaskan Alat Pelindung Diri (APD) untuk Corona Virus Disease (COVID19).

Introduction:Personal protective equipment (PPE) is a necessary item in the period of unknown and high-risk emerging infectious disease. It is not only the necessary requirement of strict isolation, but also the last line of defense to protect medical staff.Aim:Compare the differences between contaminated frequency and sites under two types of PPE doffing.Methods:Recruited 56 health care workers (HCWs) who worked in clinical to follow the different PPE removal guidelines issued by the Chinese Center for Disease Control (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) final resolution for preventing Ebola virus. Eight batches of HCWs were divided to conduct simulations of contaminated PPE removal using fluorescent lotion (Glitter Bug Potion, On Solution Pty Lt). Then we recorded the frequency and sites of contamination of personnel after removal of contaminated PPE by the method of visual observation.Results:According to China’s CDC process, the parts that are easily contaminated during PPE removal are: left hand and wrist (7 times), left calf (7 times), front chest center and left and right chest (6 times each) and left abdomen (5 times). Contaminated parts of the PPE process in accordance with the WHO process from high to low were: right hand and wrist (13 times), left hand and wrist (12 times), middle of the abdomen (10 times), left chest (9 times), and left abdomen (6 Times). There was no statistical difference between the two kinds of PPE piercing and removal (Z=1.177, P > 0. 05).Discussion:Under the guidance of the two processes recommended by China CDC and WHO, there was no significant difference in the frequency of pollution after removing PPE. It is speculated that the PPE recommendation processes issued by WHO and China CDC are effective for personal protection against fulminating infectious diseases.

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.
