Abstract

Background: COVID-19 is a pandemic that spreads very fast. Until now, COVID-19 has spread in 207 countries.Objective: This study aimed to analyze the correlation between weather factors and COVID-19 in West Java, Indonesia. This study used a secondary data analysis of weather data from the Meteorological Department of the Republic of Indonesia and surveillance of COVID-19 from the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia. The weather has five components, including minimum temperature (0C), maximum temperature (0C), temperature average (0C), humidity (%), amount of rainfall (mm), and wind speed (m/s). Data were analyzed using Spearman's rank correlation test.Result: Of the weather components, only temperature average (r = 0.545; p <0.001) and humidity (r = -0.500; p <0.001) significantly correlated with COVID-19.Conclusion: The results can be used to decrease the pandemic of COVID-19 in Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: The degree of quality health is greatly influenced by existing health services. Thus, assessing the service quality during the COVID-19 pandemic is necessary. Objective: This study aimed to describe the quality of services in health service facilities in North Buton District during the pandemic. Method: A descriptive survey research was conducted in 2021. A total of 400 respondents were selected using accidental sampling. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and presented in the form of frequency distribution tables and narratives. Results: The quality of service (tangible, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy) was sufficient. Changes in the quality of health services were more likely related to changes in service flow and operating hours. However, although the service quality was adequate, some respondents (8% to 12%) complained about unavailability of hand sanitizer in the waiting room, inadequate detailed information related to COVID-19, slow registration process, lack of medical personnel, and less friendly healthcare workers. Conclusion: This study may serve as input for health policymakers and hospital and public health center managers to improve health service quality.
