Abstract

Malaria remains a serious threat to Pamtas Task Force personnel on the Papuan border. This study evaluates the effectiveness of biosecurity strategies by the TNI Health Center using mixed methods. The results showed that the application of insecticide mosquito nets, uniform with pemethran, and prophylactic drugs reduced malaria cases by 25%. However, the main challenges include logistical constraints and vector resistance to insecticides. Regression analysis showed key risk factors including environment, mobility, and adherence to prophylaxis. The study recommends improving logistics, training, and the use of real-time monitoring technology. Collaboration with communities and external partners is considered important to strengthen biosecurity protocols and support the malaria elimination target by 2030.
