Mekanisme Survival Selama Pandemi Covid-19: Belajar Dari Pengalaman Perempuan Single Mother di Perdesaaan Madura

The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic adds to the burden for single mothers. In addition to performing two functions at once, the pandemic forces them to survive difficult situations. This article describes the challenges facing single-mother as well as survival mechanisms during pandemics by phenomenological studies through direct observation and in-depth interviews conducted on single mothers in Ponteh Village. Data showed some of the challenges single-mother faced during the pandemic. First, there is an increase in double burden. One of the additional tasks for a single mother is the increasing burden of taking care of households needs due to their children’s schooling from home. Second, the decrease in income for household needs resulted from the government's mobility restriction policy. Third, the stereotyping of women (widows) that leads to social pressures. Survival mechanisms carried out by single mother during the pandemic are as follows. First, fostering optimism and taking care of each other. Second, using social relationships. Third, downsizing through reduced consumption and food substitutes, and fourth, diversifying and intensifying their jobs. This article therefore adds to the understanding that single mother women are no longer considered women who are unable to take care of their families when in fact they are able to overcome helplessness and difficult challenges.

Analysis of Blood Availability During the COVID-19 Pandemic Period in Blood Bank Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital

Blood Bank's challenge during the COVID-19 era is securing and protecting blood supplies even though countries aretaking precautionary measures with social distancing to prevent or reduce the number of infections caused by COVID-19.This study aimed to compare blood availability before and during the COVID-19 pandemic at the blood bank of Dr. WahidinSudirohusodo Hospital. A Descriptive-analytic study with an observational approach using the Shapiro-Wilk test todetermine the normality of the sample and the paired T-test. Sample data was taken between March-August 2019 andMarch-August 2020. A significant difference was found in blood demand (p-value=0.004), amount of blood transfusion(p-value=0.006), stock and reference report (p-value=0.005), blood service report (p-value=0.005), cito waiting time(p-value=0.002) and regular waiting time (p-value=0.016). There was no significant difference in blood indicator Packed RedCell (PRC) (p-value=0.119). The Large-Scale Social Restriction Policy (PSBB) and reduction of elective surgery in hospitalsaffect the fulfillment of Blood Bank and faster attendance time of blood during the pandemic. The decrease in a number ofblood demands during the COVID-19 pandemic affected the number of blood transfusions, blood service reports, stocks,referrals, and cito and regular waiting time services.

Spatial and Time Spillovers of Driving Restrictions: Causal Evidence from Limas Pico y Placa Policy

Driving restrictions are popular interventions in rapidly urbanizing developing countries. Their relatively inexpensive implementation appeals to the pressing need to reduce traffic congestion and pollution. Their effectiveness however, remains contested. Using high frequency data from the community-based driving directions app Waze, we evaluate the causal effect on traffic congestion of Lima's Pico y Placa driving restriction policy introduced in 2019. We find small improvements in traffic congestion for the policy's directly targeted areas. However, those improvements are offset by time and spatial spillovers in the opposite direction in the aggregate. Speed improved by 2 percent during the early weeks of the intervention, but this effect disappeared 16 weeks after the start of the policy. Moreover, traffic conditions worsened in adjacent areas and in hours outside the time schedule of the policy. In the aggregate, accounting for time and spatial spillovers, a simulation exercise suggests that overall welfare declined by 2 percent, mostly driven by the extensive margin (more roads becoming congested) outside the direct areas and hours targeted by the policy. The policy seems not only to have failed to achieve its intended benefits in terms of congestion, but also probably caused increases in traffic-related pollution. These results highlight the need for policy makers to take into account the overall impacts of driving restrictions policies before implementing them.

Optimalisasi Penggunaan Teknologi Informasi dan Komunikasi bagi Anggota Keluarga di Masa Pandemi Covid-19

Almost all countries in the world have been affected by the Covid-19 virus pandemic, including Indonesia. The Indonesian government established a Large-Scale Social Restriction policy in an effort to break the chain of spreading the covid-19 virus. The limited movement of people makes information and communication technology play a very important role as well as a solution to overcome these restrictions. Technology helps parents to keep working and finish their work from home, shop from home and children can learn from home so that effective and efficient distance learning activities can be realized. Optimizing the use of information and communication technology in the family provides more benefits for all family members during the Covid-19 pandemic due to the imposition of social restrictions that require all to stay at home.

THE IMPACT OF THE PRO AND CONS POLICIES IN JOKOWI ERA'S ON THE MACRO ECONOMY OF SOCIETY

Introduction: Corona is a new variant of the virus that spreads very quickly. It is only by physical contact the virus capable on infecting human body as its host. Governments in various countries have implemented social restrictions or lockdowns to reduce the spread of the virus.Methods This study uses descriptive analysis method. The sample of this study is Jokowi's three policies on handling corona.Results: Not all of the policies contrary considered for the public are detrimental. The lack of a lockdown from the start was due to save foreign exchange from the tourism sector before the lockdown occurred.Conclusion and suggestion: The social restriction policy has not only resulted in positive way for the medical community, but also negative way with the decline of the national economy.

A STUDY ON INDIVIDUAL CARBON TRADING MECHANISM BASED ON CARBON REDUCTION BONUS IN THE CONTEXT OF CHINA'S MOTOR VEHICLE RESTRICTION POLICY

In the context of the development of China's carbon emissions trading market, research into individual-based carbon trading markets is gradually gaining momentum. But due to the diversity of individual carbon emissions and the difculty of quantifying them, there are many challenges to realising a personal carbon trading market, and China has yet to develop a complete personal carbon trading system. Therefore, based on Beijing's tail number restriction policy, this paper designs a personal carbon trading market mechanism based on the carbon emissions generated by car use as a commodity, with a focus on trading mechanisms, and supported by incentive systems, regulatory systems and compensation systems. With the help of the "carbon reduction red envelope" trading platform to achieve the participation of two main bodies, multi-benet. The changes in carbon emissions under different scenarios are also analysed, and some of the conditions for the operation of the personal carbon trading mechanism proposed in this paper are calculated. The individual carbon trading mechanism proposed in this paper,solves the inconvenience caused by the license plate restriction policy to Chinese people, promotes the exible and systematic development of urban management, and provides ideas for the development of China's individual carbon trading market.

Rekayasa Model Perencanaan Transportasi dalam Menciptakan Mobilitas yang Aman pada Masa Pandemi Covid 19 (Studi Kasus : Mobilitas Mahasiswa di Jawa Timur)

The mobility restriction policy imposed in response to the increasing transmission of Covid-19 brought changes in people's travel behavior, both at the global and local levels. The four traditional models at the transportation planning stage became biased because the need for travel was different during this pandemic. This study aimed to create a modification of transportation planning, where the mobility continues to use the existing four-stage transportation planning model but at the same time ensures safety from the dangers of Covid-19 transmission. The survey was conducted online on students (N=100) spread across cities in East Java Province, where the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the implementation of higher education, especially student mobility. The research findings indicated that students still travel actively to universities. The student's motive for traveling was only because of important and urgent matters dominated by work and receiving news of death from family. In contrast, the majority used private vehicles, especially on trips within the city. However, the tendency to use public transportation when traveling long distances was also still in demand by respondents.
