Summary
Health is the main factor that must be continuously pursued and considered for the sake of a prosperous society. Indonesia is ranked 4th in the Southeast Asia Global Health Resilience Index. This is what the Indonesian government is still paying attention to, where diseases have put Indonesia in 4th position after Singapore (Hopkins Center for Health Security, 2019). This is done by the community and in collaboration with health workers to make it easier for the public to understand how to pay attention to and care for health correctly and adequately. In 2020, Indonesia was hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, which made health campaign activities even more stringent to avoid being attacked by the Covid-19 virus and improve people's welfare & productivity. As of June 16, 2021, Covid-19 cases in Indonesia have reached around 1.93 million patients with a total recovery of 1.76 million people and 53,280 deaths, while the Covid-19 virus case in North Kalimantan, precisely in Tanjung City, has the total number of confirmed cases reached 3,104 people (PUSKESMAS Tanjung Selor, North Kalimantan, 2021)
