Abstract

Indonesia was the country with the second-highest case of COVID-19 in the South East Asia Region (SEAR) of the World Health Organization (WHO) data until August 1, 2021. As an infectious disease, the high level of COVID-19 rate transmission requires everyone always to prepare a prevention tools kit to minimize the risk of coronavirus exposure. This study aimed to analyze the determinant factors of readiness of the COVID-19 prevention tools kit. This study used a cross-sectional design with a mix-method technique because data collection and analysis combine quantitative and qualitative approaches in several phases of the research process. Data collected from 18 representative provinces in Indonesia with a total of respondents involved were 2,196 people. The Binary Logistic Regression tests were used to analyze the variable correlation. The multivariable analytic showed that the determinant factors with a significant correlation which affected the readiness of COVID-19 prevention tools kit in each family during pandemic in Indonesia were age 37-46 years old (p=0.000; odds ratio=8.039), female gender (p=0.000; odds ratio=8.653), self-employed jobs (p=0.028; odds ratio=2.239), income > 5 million per month (p=0.000; odds ratio=7.267), good knowledge (p=0.000; odds ratio=3.311), and good perception (p=0.001; odds ratio=2.015). The supply of tools and medicines to prevent COVID-19 is indispensable during the pandemic to protect against COVID-19 infection. Masks and hand sanitizers become the main kits most individuals have, especially when doing outside home activities. At the same time, the oximeter becomes the least kit in the family. This preparation also teaches citizens to practice a healthy lifestyle. Cross-sector coordination is needed to improve public awareness of COVID-19 prevention equipment.

Abstrak

Indonesia adalah negara dengan kes COVID-19 tertinggi kedua di Wilayah Asia Tenggara (SEAR) mengikut data oleh Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia (WHO) sehingga 1 Ogos 2021. Sebagai penyakit berjangkit, tahap jangakitan tinggi COVID-19 memerlukan setiap orang untuk selalu menyediakan alat pencegahan untuk mengurangkan risiko pendedahan coronavirus. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis faktor penentu kesediaan kit alat pencegahan COVID-19. Kajian ini menggunakan reka bentuk keratan rentas dengan teknik kaedah campuran. Data yang dikumpulkan daripada 18 wilayah perwakilan di Indonesia dengan jumlah responden yang terlibat adalah 2,196 orang. Ujian Regresi Logistik Binari digunakan untuk menganalisis korelasi pemboleh ubah. Statistik analitik menunjukkan faktor penentu dengan korelasi yang signifikan yang mempengaruhi kesediaan kit alat pencegahan COVID-19 dalam setiap keluarga semasa pandemik di Indonesia berumur 37-46 tahun (p = 0.000; odds ratio = 8.039), jantina wanita (p = 0.000; odds ratio = 8.653), pekerjaan mandiri (p = 0.028; odds ratio = 2.239), pendapatan> 5 juta sebulan (p = 0.000; odds ratio = 7.267), pengetahuan yang baik (p = 0.000 ; odds ratio = 3.311) dan persepsi yang baik (p = 0.001; odds ratio = 2.015). Pembekalan alat dan ubat-ubatan untuk mencegah COVID-19 sangat diperlukan semasa pandemik untuk melindungi daripada jangkitan COVID-19. Penutup muka dan pembersih tangan menjadi alat utama yang dimiliki kebanyakan individu, terutama ketika melakukan aktiviti di luar rumah. Pada masa yang sama, oksimeter menjadi kit paling sedikit dalam keluarga. Persediaan ini juga mengajar warga untuk mengamalkan gaya hidup sihat. Penyelarasan rentas sektor diperlukan untuk meningkatkan kesediaan orang ramai daripada segi peralatan pencegahan COVID-19.

Kata kunci: Kaedah campuran; kesediaan keluarga; kit pencegahan COVID-19; penyakit berjangkit
