Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This study uses a survey of the affected human population to evaluate the impact of host variables on the spread of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) in Indonesia. The study investigated observable factors influencing DHF transmission by operationalizing important variables drawn from theoretical frameworks. The findings highlight the significance of host-related factors in understanding the dynamics of DHF, offering useful insights for the development of successful public health initiatives. The study's goal is to lessen the impact of DHF on communities, safeguard vulnerable groups, and reduce the frequency of serious health problems. The study recommends focused interventions to improve community resilience against DHF, emphasizing the importance of health practices and environmental effects. Finally, the study emphasizes the importance of continued public awareness and education measures in Indonesia to tackle this persistent health threat and prevent future epidemics.
