Abstract

Purpose: This research aimed to observe the gap for improvement in dengue vector control during COVID-19, considering two
stakeholders: the government and society. We formulated two research questions: 1) How is the government managing dengue vector
control during the COVID-19 pandemic? 2) What is the situation of dengue disease, its vectors, and vector control in the community?
Methods: This study uses multiple approaches: policy review, social listening using Twitter analysis, and interviews. A policy review
was employed to capture the journey of dengue vector control in Indonesia from dengue found in Indonesia until the COVID-19
pandemic. Twitter data captured public opinions through social media about dengue and vector control. Interviews involved program
implementers that consider knowing the situation in the field of dengue and its vector control. The informant was selected through
purposive sampling.
Results: To control dengue disease, the Indonesian government has released regulations about dengue vector control that adjusts the
COVID-19 situation, but vector control is still not running optimally, resulting in the data supply for policy not running well.
Conclusion: Dengue cases continued during the COVID-19 pandemic, even in some places stated an outbreak occurred. Vector
control does not work correctly during the COVID-19 pandemic due to social restrictions. It is recommended to encourage the
implementation of community empowerment through one house, one jumantik, which is equipped with self-reporting to mitigate and
respond to similar situations as the pandemic
