Abstract. Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is an infectious disease caused by the dengue virus and transmitted through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. This disease continues to be a serious health problem in Indonesia, with high incidence rates in various regions, including rural areas. Efforts to prevent DHF are often focused on controlling mosquito vectors through various methods, one of which is the use of insecticides. However, the use of chemical insecticides can have negative impacts on human health and the environment. Therefore, this research develops a natural alternative in the form of Anti Mosquito Spray and Hand Sanitizer made from lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus). Lemongrass was chosen because it contains citronella, a compound proven to have activity as a repellent or mosquito deterrent. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of lemongrass-based mosquito repellent spray as well as its capability as a hand sanitizer. The results show that this product is not only effective in preventing mosquito bites but also safe to use as a hand sanitizer, making it a practical and environmentally friendly solution in the prevention of DHF. Abstrak. Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) merupakan penyakit menular yang disebabkan oleh virus dengue dan ditularkan melalui gigitan nyamuk Aedes aegypti. Penyakit ini terus menjadi masalah kesehatan serius di Indonesia, dengan tingkat kejadian yang tinggi di berbagai wilayah, termasuk daerah perdesaan. Upaya pencegahan terhadap DBD sering kali difokuskan pada pengendalian vektor nyamuk melalui berbagai metode, salah satunya adalah penggunaan insektisida. Namun, penggunaan insektisida kimia dapat berdampak negatif terhadap kesehatan manusia dan lingkungan. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini mengembangkan alternatif alami dalam bentuk Anti Mosquito Spray and Hand Sanitizer yang berbahan dasar serai (Cymbopogon citratus). Serai dipilih karena mengandung senyawa sitronela yang terbukti memiliki aktivitas sebagai repelan atau pengusir nyamuk. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas spray anti nyamuk berbahan dasar serai serta kemampuannya sebagai pembersih tangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa produk ini tidak hanya efektif dalam mencegah gigitan nyamuk, tetapi juga aman digunakan sebagai pembersih tangan, sehingga dapat menjadi solusi praktis dan ramah lingkungan dalam upaya pencegahan DBD.

The rapid spread of infectious diseases remains a major global health threat, and early detection is vital to minimize their impact. This research investigates the role of predictive modeling using big data in the early detection of infectious disease outbreaks. The primary objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of big data systems in forecasting potential outbreaks and the implications of these forecasts for public health systems. The study employs machine learning-based predictive models to process large health datasets, including electronic health records, sensor data, and social media information. The results demonstrate that the predictive model achieved an accuracy rate of 87%, significantly surpassing traditional methods in terms of early detection. By integrating various data sources such as medical records, sensor networks, and real-time digital traces, the system is capable of providing more accurate, timely predictions, which can greatly improve the ability of public health authorities to respond effectively to emerging health threats. Furthermore, the application of big data in public health not only improves the speed of response but also enhances the allocation of resources, allowing for more targeted and efficient interventions. Despite these successes, challenges remain, particularly in relation to data quality, privacy, and regulatory issues, which could hinder the broader implementation of such systems. Thus, collaboration between government agencies, healthcare institutions, and technology developers is essential to overcome these obstacles and ensure the sustainable integration of big data into public health infrastructures. This research highlights the significant potential of big data to transform public health responses, offering valuable insights for future epidemic management strategies.  

Malaria adalah penyakit menular yang disebabkan oleh parasit Plasmodium dan ditularkan melalui gigitan nyamuk Anopheles betina. Kabupaten Kepulauan Yapen, yang terletak di Provinsi Papua, merupakan salah satu daerah di Indonesia dengan prevalensi malaria yang tinggi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan antara tingkat pengetahuan masyarakat dengan kejadian malaria di Kabupaten Kepulauan Yapen. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode survei dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner yang disebarkan kepada masyarakat setempat dan dianalisis menggunakan uji statistik chi-square untuk melihat hubungan antara variabel pengetahuan dan kejadian malaria. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara tingkat pengetahuan masyarakat tentang malaria dengan kejadian penyakit tersebut (p < 0,05). Masyarakat yang memiliki pengetahuan yang baik tentang malaria cenderung lebih aktif dalam melakukan tindakan pencegahan seperti menggunakan kelambu, membersihkan lingkungan, dan mengakses pelayanan kesehatan ketika mengalami gejala malaria. Sebaliknya, masyarakat dengan pengetahuan yang kurang tentang malaria lebih rentan terhadap infeksi karena kurangnya tindakan pencegahan yang dilakukan. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa peningkatan pengetahuan masyarakat tentang malaria dapat berkontribusi secara signifikan dalam upaya pencegahan dan pengendalian penyakit ini di Kabupaten Kepulauan Yapen. Oleh karena itu, intervensi pendidikan kesehatan yang berfokus pada peningkatan pengetahuan dan kesadaran tentang malaria sangat diperlukan. Diharapkan hasil penelitian ini dapat menjadi acuan bagi pemerintah daerah dan instansi terkait dalam merumuskan kebijakan dan program yang efektif untuk menurunkan angka kejadian malaria di wilayah ini..
