They have to access Voluntary counseling and testing (VCT) as one of the health services where they would receive antiretroviral treatment to optimize their health and improve their quality of life. The study aims to analyze the factors which determine the utilization of VCT for accessing antiretroviral treatment by WRALHIV in West Papua. It was an observational, cross-sectional study. The subject was women of reproductive age (WRA) aged 15-49 years old, receiving antiretroviral treatment at VCT of Hospitals in Manokwari, Sorong, and Fakfak. The total was 140 respondents. Data collection was carried out by interviews using a questionnaire. The data were analyzed statistically using the chi-square and logistic regression tests. Most respondents with high intensity in the utilization of VCT services were aged 15-35 years, graduated from senior high school - university, unemployed, and married. Demographic and predisposing variables were not significantly associated, but there were significant associations between enabling factors (distance) with p value=0.00 and reinforcing factor (social support) with p value=0.03 in the utilization of VCT services by WRALHIV in West Papua, in which the distance was more significant than social support in the utilization of VCT services. The easily accessible distance increases their visitation to VCT. In addition, social support had an impact on increasing the utilization of VCT services, and finally, these may improve WRALHIV quality of life.","PeriodicalId":30682,"journal":{"name":"KEMAS Jurnal Kesehatan Masyarakat","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80533092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study’s purpose was to spatially describe the distribution of new cases of Covid-19 in terms of population density and elevation of the sub-district area in Magelang. The type of research is descriptive quantitative with ecological studies using a spatial approach. The results showed that the distribution of new cases of Covid-19 has a unique pattern in mapping based on population density and altitude. Some of the new distribution cases showed a distribution pattern following the regional elevation and almost entirely following the pattern of population density. The increase of Covid-19 tends to be higher in areas with high-density populations and low-altitude regions.

The eleven informants who participated in this study, determined by purposive sampling, were Muhammadiyah members who lived and worked in the Jakarta. These Informants consisted of various professions, including health workers, teachers, district board members, nurses, drivers, traders, housewives, and students. Data collection was by online focus group discussions through the zoom cloud meetings platform. Informants discussed the five aspects of the guideline which included consistency, clarity, relevancy, credibility and interest. The contents of the guideline were found to be consistent with other similar guidelines published by the Ministry of Health (MOH). In addition, being affiliated members of the Muhammadiyah group, informants felt more comfortable trusting the Muhammadiyah-published COVID-19 guidelines. From the clarity and relevance aspect, the informants had positive perspectives on the guidelines. The design of the published guidelines attracted their interest in reading, implementing, and sharing the guidelines with others. However, the guideline did not contain the names of its drafting team nor the introduction by the Central Board leadership. It would have been a very important strategy in strengthening the credibility of the media published by the MCCC.
