Abstract

Brucellosis is an infectious disease transmitted from livestock,especially dairy cattle, to humans, caused by bacteria Brucella sp. Brucellosis causes undulant fever and reproductive disorders in humans with a low mortality rate. The majority of dairy farmers do not know that brucellosis can spread to humans. Washing hands is one of biosecurity steps to ensure animal and human health and to prevent brucellosis. The research aims to uncover the influence of the knowledge of brucellosis in humans, the level of education, the duration of working, the history of fever, and age on the habit of washing hands after contact with dairy cow. The number of respondents was based on proportional test, 18 workers as being selected based on an inclusion criteria. They were given closed questionnaire containing questions on the knowledge of human brucellosis, demographic data and washing hand after contact with the dairy cattle. The results show that only 33.3 % of respondents know about human brucellosis, 66.7 % of respondents do not know that brucellosis can infect human. As many as 61.1 % of the respondents did not wash their hands after contact with dairy cows. Variables of age,the duration of working in dairy farm and the history of fever have p <0.02. Conclusion: variables of age, the duration of working in dairy farm and the history of fever are associated with behavior washing hand after contact with the dairy cattle. Keywords: Human brucellosis, dairy cattle, washing hand, zoonosis

Abstract

The era of globalization allows migration fastly, so we do not have boundary of a country. This led to an increase of the infectious diseases. Indonesia also have an impact on this globalization by highly migration. Indonesia is a tropical country and has diversity of vectors that can transmit various tropical diseases. One of a vector which transmitted vector borne diseases is a bug Triatoma. Triatoma lives near the people’s house and in the bed. One of the species of Triatoma which found in indonesia is Triatoma rubrifasciata which is vector of Chagas disease and Leprosy and can cause allergic reaction of the skin after the bite. Triatoma infection in Southeast Asia, including in Indonesia has not been widely reported. This condition should make us to be alert on the disease emerging or re emerging diseases that can be caused by Triatoma . This article aims to study Triatoma as a vector of emerging and potentially re emerging diseases in Indonesia, which are Chagas, skin allergic reaction after bite and Leprosy. Methods. Literature review by look in google scholar and pubmed, by search using keywords: emerging parasitic, vector borne diseases, Triatoma in Southeast Asia. Inclusion criterias are research articles, laboratory research, case report, and systematic surveillance. Based on the literatures, tracing data that Indonesia has a chance to be the cases of Chagas disease, Skin allergic reaction of Triatoma and Leprosy. It is supposed to made the vigilance on make a early warning system, so our public health coud be achieved highest.
