Abstract
Background and Objective: Stunting, low birth weight, maternal death, and child mortality have all become public health issues in recent years, particularly in Semarang, Indonesia. Simultaneously, the COVID-19 pandemic is spreading. Between the years 2019 and 2021.
 Methods: The Semarang City Health Service's secondary data analysis strategy was combined with a quantitative descriptive research methodology in this study. To evaluate numerical patterns in stunting, low birth weight, maternal death, and infant mortality in the data, simple regression were utilized.
 Results: According to the findings, the trend of stunting (modeling results y = 35,236 x + 361.77) and maternal mortality (modeling results 0.0218x+1.2921) increased between 2019 and 2021, whereas the trend of low birth weight (modeling results y = - 0.5425x+60.008) and child mortality (modeling results y = -0.0028x+ 2.202) decreased. The number of low birth weight has the lowest trend value, while the stunting rate has the greatest.
 Conclusion: Stunting rates increased, the low birth weight dropped, maternal mortality increased, and child mortality decreased in Semarang. The conditions of the Covid-19 epidemic have at least influenced this condition.
