<![CDATA[Background: Facts show that Liliba Village is one of the health service outreaches in the form of prevention and control of the coronavirus (COVID-19) which truly needs cooperation between the government and health sector, state defense and security sectors such as the Indonesian National Arm Force and the National Police as well as participation from the community. Without good cooperation between the government and related agencies and participation from the community, the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) cannot be controlled, causing adverse impacts on the community. This study aims to determine the factors related to community behavior in complying with health protocols during the COVID-19 pandemic in Liliba Village, Oebobo District, Kupang City in 2022.
