Abstract

COVID-19 adalah penyakit menular yang disebabkan oleh Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Seiring dengan peningkatan jumlah kasus COVID-19, kesadaran masyarakat untuk menggunakan masker juga semakin tinggi. Peningkatan  pemakaian masker tentunya harus diikuti dengan pemahaman penggunaan masker dan manajemen pembuangan limbah masker bekas pakai yang tepat untuk memastikan efektivitas maksimal dalam menghindari penularan COVID-19. Peningkatan pemahaman masyarakat dilakukan dengan penyuluhan, pembagian masker dan leaflet penanganan limbah masker. Hasil pengabdian masyarakat menunjukkan nilai rerata scoring pre-test pengetahuan responden adalah 79,95 dan hasil post-test dengan nilai rerata 88,41. Berdasarkan analisis paired t-test didapatkan nilai p-value < 0.05, ini menunjukkan bahwa terjadi peningkatan pengetahuan masyarakat setelah dilakukan penyuluhan. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat berjalan dengan lancar dan mendapat respon positif dari masyarakat setempat. Melalui peningkatan pengetahuan ini diharapkan akan dapat meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat akan pentingnya penggunaan masker dan penge sebagai upaya pencegahan penyebaran COVID-19.

 

ABSTRACT

 

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Along with the increase in the number of COVID-19 cases, the use of masks by the community is also increased. However, It must be followed by the correct use of masks and proper understanding of the waste management to ensure maximum effectiveness of COVID-19 prevention.This community service was carried out through counseling, distribution of masks and leaflets. The results showed that the average score of the pre-test of respondents' knowledge was 79.95 and the post-test results was 88.41. Based on the paired t-test analysis, the p-value <0.05, this indicated that there was an increase in knowledge after counseling. Community service activities went smoothly and received a positive response from the local community. By increasing knowledge, it was hoped that it would increase public awareness of using masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
