One such condition is slum settlements, which are vulnerable to the spread of COVID-19. The spread of COVID-19 is also strongly related to housing conditions. Sociodemographic factors include high population density, which increases human contact risk and make it difficult to maintain a minimum distance of 1–2 m, resulting in COVID-19 transmission, low education levels associated with positive COVID-19 test, and people with low socioeconomic status at risk of spreading COVID-19. Sociodemographic status is one of the risk factors affecting the increase of COVID-19 transmission. Social determinants for pulmonary tuberculosis and COVID-19 can be related to housing and environmental conditions, physical environmental conditions, environment and safety, food security and malnutrition, costs and distance, social protection, culture and language, access to healthcare facilities, social isolation, and socioeconomic status. These determinants can also affect pulmonary tuberculosis or other infectious diseases. Some social health determinants can significantly affect the occurrence of COVID-19 for infected people and society because not everyone is affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The surrounding close environment of an infected person can serve as a source of transmission. Droplets can also stick to surfaces where the virus can live for roughly 3 h in droplet, 24 h on stainless steel, 2–3 days on cardboard, 3 days on plastic, and 4 days on copper. The droplets from the respiratory tract of an infected person can be transmitted to a healthy person when (s)he coughs or sneezes. ĬOVID-19 transmission occurs in 2 ways: through droplets or close contact with an infected person. The virus is named after the wreath-shaped protrusion in the viral sheath. Coronavirus is included in the Nidovirales order, Coronaviridae family, Orthocoronavirinae sub-family, and is divided into groups α, β, γ, and δ in accordance with its serotypic and genomic characteristics. ĬOVID-19 is a disease caused by the coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus, a positive, single-stranded RNA virus that is not segmented. In Jakarta alone, the number of cases has reached 479,043 with 7976 deaths. As per 21 June 2021, there have been 1,989,909 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with 54,662 deaths in Indonesia reported to WHO. In Indonesia, the number of COVID-19 patients also continues to rise. As per 21 June 2021, World Health Organization (WHO) reported 178,118,597 confirmed cases of COVID-19 worldwide, including 3,864,180 deaths.
The world is currently facing the COVID-19 pandemic. The government needs to enforce a mobility restriction to lessen the spread of COVID-19. The main risk factor for the spread of COVID-19 in Jakarta is high level of education, which can reflect a higher economic status to the population and a tendency to be more mobile. Risk factors for the spread of COVID-19 were associated with population's high level of education (B = 3.094, p value<0.001), population density (B = 0.275, p value = 0.029), and slum area (B = 0.404, p value<0.001).
The study results showed that the average COVID-19 incident rate in Jakarta is 99.8 per 10,000 population. Data analysis used correlation and linear regression tests. The total population was 44 subdistricts. The study used an ecological study design with subdistricts as its unit of analysis. This research studies the sociodemographic and environmental health risk factors associated with COVID-19. Many factors have influenced the spread of COVID-19. Since December 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic has rapidly emerged on a global scale.
