  • Descriptive study to describe attack rate by demographic, symptoms, treatment, and risk factors. Period: May to June 2024.
  • Active case finding; Interviews and administered online self-assessment questionnaires to school residents and parents on demographic, symptoms, onset date, treatment, and risk factors.
  • Environmental observation to look for potential risk factors in people and school buildings.

This investigation aimed to describe mumps outbreak characteristics and risk factors and recommend control measures.

Objectives:

METHODS

School residents from Kindergarten R and S who had swollen cheeks and fever with one or more the following symptoms: odynophagia, loss of appetite, malaise, headache, stomach ache, and myalgia from May to June 2024.

  • Contact with cases,
  • High population density in class,
  • Poor ventilations,
  • Less awareness of disease transmission and prevention (including mumps vaccination) among school residents and parents.
  • Inter-school transmission was likely to occur because they shared the same field during sports lessons.

Outbreak risk factors:

CONTROL MEASURES

  • Temporary dismissed school activities, and self-isolate cases.
  • Disinfecting classrooms.
  • Wearing masks.
  • Giving information to school residents about mumps, and educate about hygiene and healthy living behavior (i.e. sneezing etiquette, washing hands with soap)

  • Climate-sensitive Infectious Disease issue 🡪 hazard potential for disease dynamic
  • Fluctuated trend of dengue in Sleman
  • Effort to achieve national target for IR and CFR
  • Risk mapping with temporal approach could be support the optimalization of response and intervention

Scan for the futher references

  • Enlarge of coverage and behavior of vector control
  • positive response of Wolbachia could maintenance the behavior of vector control
  • Effect of climate-change descriptively impacted to dengue trend with lagging 1-3 month
  • Optimum period for intervention: July-October
  • Peak of dengue: March-May

Method

  • Cross sectional descriptive with 81 respondent in Sleman (convenience sampling)
  • Temporal mapping focuses on hazard and vulnerability of dengue, refers to STAR guideline from WHO (2021)
