The increased cases of dengue fever in the early phase of covid-19 pandemic in Denpasar

At the beginning of the covid-19 pandemic in Denpasar, restrictions on community activities have been imposed in March 2020 and we find there has also been a spike in cases of dengue fever that showed an increase in January 2020 by 59 cases to 110 cases in February 2020 and 142 cases in the first week of March 2020. The purpose of the study was to find out the relationship between restrictions on community activities and dengue fever cases in Denpasar. This research uses qualitative method by interviews to 11 dengue fever program holders and 46 mosquito larva monitor officers in each village. Quantitative method by analysis of the secondary data of dengue fever case reports. Result shows if the people of Denpasar have good knowledge and behavior in managing mosquito larvae in their homes. The result of interviews due to the covid-19 pandemic, it can be known if the community is more often self-quarantined at home and cannot go out to public places to clean the environment that can be breeding habitats for Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Therefore, during restrictions on community activities, we need to make a team to clean the environment like village water irrigation, tree holes etc.
