Abstract

Malaria is an infectious disease that occurs throughout the world, especially in the tropics. One of the factors that cause the high incidence of malaria is the behavior of the community towards malaria. People's lives during the Covid-19 pandemic have changed a lot, especially in the field of individual hygiene and the environment. Data from the Talawaan Health Center in 2020 found 4 cases of people suffering from malaria in Talawaan District, North Minahasa Regency, which increased from 2019 with a total of only 2 cases of malaria infection. This study aims to determine the behavior of the people of Kolongan Village, Talawaan District, North Minahasa Regency, towards malaria during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study is a descriptive study that is observational in nature. The people of Kolongan Village, Talawaan District, North Minahasa Regency, have good knowledge about malaria and the signs and symptoms of malaria during the Covid-19 pandemic, but knowledge related to the malaria incubation period is still limited. Respondents' attitudes regarding malaria during the Covid-19 pandemic have been relatively good, which is shown by closing doors and windows to avoid mosquitoes from entering, maintaining environmental cleanliness for malaria prevention, and draining puddles to avoid mosquito shelters.

Abstract

Malaria remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in many countries. A definitive diagnosis of malaria can be made through microscopic examination or Rapid Diagnostic Tests (RDTs). Both microscopic examination and RDT have their own characteristics, advantages, and limitations. This study aims to describe the methods of malaria diagnosis at community health centers in Bitung City. A descriptive research design with a cross-sectional approach was used in this study. Data were obtained through interviews with nine health workers, including laboratory assistants and malaria program coordinators, from nine community health centers in Bitung City. The results showed that microscopic examination was available in only five community health centers. These centers confirmed RDT results and identified Plasmodium species through microscopic examination. In the primary health centers where only RDT was available, three referred patients to more equipped facilities, and one made a diagnosis using only RDT. The conclusion of this study is that RDT is available in all community health centers, whereas microscopic examination is available in only five community health centers due to limited diagnostic tools and human resources.
