Abstract
COVID-19 virus has spread almost all over the world, including Indonesia until now. COVID-19 in people with diabetes mellitus have a risk of exacerbating symptoms. Diabetes is a disease caused by high blood sugar levels. Nanogold has a very strong anti-oxidant capability, while nanosilver has anti-bacterial properties. In this research, nanogold-nanosilver was presented in the form of health drinking water packaged in 1 L bottles and could be consumed directly. This research aimed to determine the effect of nanogold-nanosilver to boost the immunity of people affected by COVID-19 with comorbidities of diabetes mellitus on Jl. Merr Surabaya to Juanda highway, Surabaya City. The method in this research was the lecture method at the beginning of the activity. Health Drinking Water Materials were distributed once a week, namely on Friday, July 31 to August 28, 2020. The sampling technique used accidental sampling with a total sample of 100. Interviews recording medical conditions were collected and analysed. The results obtained were a decrease in blood sugar levels to normal in patients with diabetes mellitus and the immunity of the participant volunteers was well maintained in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. The age group under 39 years had the greatest decrease in blood sugar levels. In accordance with the research results, Nanogold-Nanosilver Health Drinking Water has succeeded in increasing and maintaining the immunity of participants who have comorbidities with diabetes mellitus and are affected by COVID-19. Besides, the participant survived not to be affected to COVID-19 during activities.
Highlights
The coronavirus outbreak due to the SARS-CoV-2 virus has infected more than 97 million people in the world
MATERIAL AND METHOD 2.1 Material The manufacture of Health Drinking Water in this research used a compound HAuCl4 1000 pm that needs to be synthesised into the form of nanomaterial Au and compound AgNO3 1000 ppm was needed to be synthesised into the form of nanomaterial Ag
4.1 The Relation between Nanogold-Nanosilver toward the Immune of People Affected by COVID-19 Nanotechnology can be defined as the design and application of multiple materials and devices in which at least one dimension is less than 100 nanometers
Summary
The coronavirus outbreak due to the SARS-CoV-2 virus has infected more than 97 million people in the world. Wuhan City, China was the place where this outbreak first appeared and is a serious health problem in the world [1]. Based on the data of World Health Organization [2], Indonesia has currently confirmed 557.877 cases and it is still increasing. COVID-19 is a highly contagious and rapidly spreading disease, the severity varies from a mild flu illness that resolves itself to fulminant pneumonia, respiratory failure and death. People or people suffering from chronic (comorbid) diseases have a greater chance of being infected with COVID-19. Chronic diseases include chronic respiratory disorders, cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension. Diabetes mellitus is the second most common comorbidity of 8% of cases after hypertension [4]
