Abstract

Immunization program is an important step to provide protection against certain diseases, especially for groups that are vulnerable to infection, such as infants, toddlers, children, women of childbearing age, and pregnant women. Through this program, Indonesia has successfully gained recognition as free from smallpox by WHO since 1974. In Indonesia, every infant (aged 0-11 months) is required to receive complete basic immunization, which includes 1 dose of Hepatitis B, 1 dose of BCG, 3 doses of DPT-HB-Hib, 4 doses of polio, and 1 dose of measles. One indicator of the success of this immunization program is the achievement of Universal Child Immunization (UCI), which is a condition where all infants (under one year of age) receive complete basic immunization. However, data shows that parental awareness of the importance of immunization is still low, so that many children end up not getting immunized. For this reason, it is necessary to carry out activities in an effort to provide awareness and understanding of the importance of immunization through socialization activities. The socialization activity was carried out in Pamekaran Village, Rancakalong District, Sumedang Regency, West Java with 34 participants consisting of mothers of toddlers. The method used was socialization accompanied by measuring initial knowledge (pre-test) and post-test) about the importance of immunization.The results of the activity had an impact, namely there was an increase in knowledge of participants with a good category about the importance of immunization, namely from 12 people or 35.2 percent (pre-test) to 27 out of 34 participants or 79.4 percent. In other words, there was an increase in the number of participants with good knowledge by 44.2 percent. Conclusion: the socialization activity had a positive impact and resulted in an increase in knowledge of Pamekaran Village residents about the importance of immunization

Abstract

Introduction: Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a communicable disease that remains a major public health problem with high incidence and mortality. One prevention effort is mosquito nest eradication through the One House One Jumantik movement, which relies on the active role of Jumantik cadres. Objective: To determine the relationship between Jumantik cadre compliance in larval eradication activities and the incidence of dengue hemorrhagic fever in the community. Method: This was an analytical observational study with a cross sectional approach. The population consisted of all Jumantik cadres in the working area of the public health center, and samples were selected using purposive sampling. Data on cadre compliance were collected using a structured questionnaire, while dengue hemorrhagic fever cases were obtained from secondary surveillance data. Data were analyzed using the chi square test. Result and Discussion: The results showed a significant relationship between Jumantik cadre compliance and the incidence of dengue hemorrhagic fever (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Increased compliance of Jumantik cadres in implementing larval eradication activities can contribute to reducing the incidence of dengue hemorrhagic fever in the community.
