Tuberculosis (TB) is a communicable disease that is a significant cause of ill health and one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Tuberculosis remains a major global health problem. Tuberculosis infection remains one of the biggest health problems in Indonesia, which ranked second in the world on the list of countries with a high burden of TB. This is a cross-sectional study where the research displays population data, population density, and the incidence of TB in Bandung city, which is visualized in the mapping. This research analyzed the relationship between population density and the incidence of TB. The area with the highest TB incidence was the Babakan Ciparay subdistrict, with a total of 469 people and a population density of 205 people/hectare. The study has shown a strong relationship and a positive correlation between population density and the incidence of TB in Bandung city (p<0.001, r=0.603). Tuberculosis cases tend to be higher in areas with high population densities. Besides population density, other factors influence the incidence of TB in an area. House technical factors such as adequacy of windows, air ventilation, and lighting influence TB transmission. Besides that, household sanitation factors and occupancy density also impact the incidence of TB. In conclusion, subdistricts with a high population density show a high incidence of TB. There is a strong and unidirectional relationship between population density and the incidence of TB.

Yogyakarta, a renowned tourist city in Indonesia, currently needs more lactation rooms and public facilities within tourist areas. To address this, inventors propose a portable lactation pod. This study utilized the design thinking method, emphasizing user needs. Interviews were conducted with thirty breastfeeding mothers on Malioboro Street in Yogyakarta to assess the necessity of lactation rooms in this popular tourist spot. From February to June 2022, the stages of "empathize," "define," "ideate," "prototype," and "test" were completed. The findings indicate that the "SEHATI" portable lactation room innovation meets user requirements, with feature satisfaction scores ranging from 4.2 to 4.9 out of 5.0. However, improvements are needed in the ventilation, exhaust fan, and fan sections, which received lower satisfaction scores during the "testing" stage. This innovation could serve as a pilot project, showcasing wellness tourism in Yogyakarta nationally.
