Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is a viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes that attacks all over the world every year. Dengue fever infection is transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. DHF cases are also still endemic and continue to spread in several districts/cities in Southeast Sulawesi Province, especially in the city of Kendari. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of climate change including temperature, humidity, rainfall and duration of sunshine on cases of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever. The analysis used multiple linear regression. The results of this study indicate that the temperature oC p value = 0.011 found that the strength of the correlation is sufficient in the negative direction, Humidity % p value = 0.133 weak correlation strength, Rainfall mm p = 0.523 weak correlation strength, and duration of sunshine % p = 0.068 the strength of the correlation is weak. After further analysis, it was found out that temperature had a significant effect on cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever in Kendari City in 2011-2020, while humidity, rainfall, and duration of sunshine had no significant effect on cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever. Therefore, it is necessary to have promotive and preventive efforts to prevent an increase in cases, as well as cross-sectoral collaboration between the health department, health centers, and local governments regarding early vigilance in preventing the spread of dengue fever cases.
