- Abstract
The incidence of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) in Buleleng District during COVID-19 pandemic was very high. Mortality cases in 2021 will double from 2020. We conducted a case-control study in two sub-districts Buleleng District. A total of 143 samples were obtained by total sampling divided into cases and controls traced from February 1-28, 2021. Cases were individuals diagnosed by the hospital. Controls were individuals selected from the case environment and did not experience symptoms of DHF. We collected data door-to-door and data from a cohort of DHF sufferers. We processed and analyzed data using the IBM SPSS version 22 application. Inferential analysis used Chi-Square or Fisher-Exact statistical tests. We found 76 cases of DHF and 2 of them died. AR in urban areas was higher than rural areas with 4 per 10,000 and a CFR of 0.62%. A total of 45 cases were male. A total of 46 cases were in the young age group. The presence of larvae (OR: 2.01 95%CI: 1.3-3.03), open containers (OR: 2.2 95%CI: 1.2-4.2), open rubbish bins (OR: 3.1 95%CI: 1.7-5.4) in urban areas and the presence of larvae (OR: 2.5 95% CI: 1.1-5.3), open containers (OR: 2.5 95% CI: 0.8-8.1) in rural areas were significantly associated with DHF outbreaks during the COVID-19 pandemic. The presence of larvae, open containers, and open rubbish bins are associated with DHF outbreaks during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is necessary to intensify surveillance approaches and community empowerment in eradicating mosquito nests to limit the area of transmission.
