Abstract

Background: Food safety is the aspect considered to prevent food poisoning worldwide. Food safety management is essential to prevent foodborne illness. Objective: This study aimed to determine factors associated with the food safety behavior of members in the Village Food Security Movement Program in Bolaang Mongondow Regency, Indonesia. Methods: Cross-sectional research was conducted on 100 participants through a purposive sampling technique in the last week of February 2022 with the COVID-19 protocol. Data were collected using validated questionnaires. Descriptive statistical tests, Chi-square test, and multi-logistic regression were employed for data analysis. Results: The majority of the respondents were female (65%) and 15-59 years old. The Chi-square analysis found education, knowledge, and attitude were significant variables. After adjusting to the multi-logistic regression, the poor attitude and low cost of family food consumption were associated with poor food safety behavior (p <0.05). Conclusion: The most significant factors related to poor food safety behavior are the low cost of family food consumption and low attitude. The program must be appropriately arranged to prevent poor food safety behavior in the households.

The factors significantly associated with the use of e-cigarettes were money pocket and the use of other forms of smoked tobacco. However, other independent variables, such as age, gender, teachers smoking during school hours, and parent smoking, were not significantly associated with using e-cigarettes.    Conclusion: The factors associated with e-cigarette use were related to the students’ socioeconomic status. The roles of parents and teachers need to be addressed to reduce the harmfulness of using e-cigarettes.

Abstract

Background: Health workers and public servants as the front line in service are prioritized to get the COVID-19 vaccination. The phenomenon of side effects is a major issue in administering the vaccination. Objective: The research aimed to identify Adverse Events Following Immunization (AEFIs) and their correlation with comorbidities in health workers and public servants in Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study design was used in this study among 262 participants selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using Google Form. Univariate analysis and Chi-Square were used for data analysis. Results: Of all participants, 74.8% were not comorbid, and 25.2% were comorbid. The incidence of AEFI was 56.9%, relatively occurring after the vaccination I, II, and I and II. AEFI started 40.1% within 24 hours post-vaccination with a 48.7% symptom duration within 1-24 hours. AEFI reactions 42.3% are other reactions in the form of allergic reactions, drowsiness, and increased appetite. The Chi-Square test showed a p-value of 0.894, indicating that both comorbid and non-comorbid patients had the same risk of developing AEFI. Conclusion: Comorbid or non-comorbid is safe to get COVID-19 vaccination. Supervisors reporting on AEFI is important to anticipate the severity condition. Health protocols must be implemented continually.

Abstract

Background: Food taboo is one of the social phenomena that can influence people’s health status, including women in fisherman families. Some types of food categorized as taboo may contain high nutrients. Food taboo practices still occur because people are afraid that bad things will happen if they ignore them. Objective: This study aimed to explore the food taboo among pregnant, breastfeeding, and adult women in Bira Village, Bulukumba District, South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. Methods: This study employed a phenomenological design. Eight participants were selected using the purposive sampling method. Data were collected in 2022 using semi-structured interviews and were analyzed using summative content analysis using NVivo software. Results: Several types of food were categorized as taboo, such as Lela fish, moringa fruit, pineapple, stingray, moringa leaf, squid, and mango. Most participants agreed that they just follow what the older people suggest, which might not make sense since all those foods contain many nutritional ingredients. Conclusion: The study findings serve as an input for public health professionals and other related stakeholders to address this cultural issue and provide understanding to the community not to avoid taboo food, which is essentially beneficial for their health.
