Introduction: Since the outbreak of Corona Disease-19 (COVID-19) spreads all over the world, various ways of health attempts have been conducted. However, overflowed information intertwines with mis/disinformation could raise public anxiety and stigma-related diseases. We aimed to assess the help of the young generation of millennials and Gen-Z whom are active college students in debunking hoaxes and myths of COVID-19 into their community.Method: The selected students were given a short course on COVID-19 basic information, prevention, and circulated myths. Later, they become ambassadors and actively educated via offline and online platforms. The impact of outspread information on audiences was investigated through a qualitative survey.Result: The knowledge of students were measured by pre- and post-test within the short course. Prior knowledge showed the least understanding part was prevention and myth of COVID-19. There was a significant improvement of knowledge in post-test after receiving seminar (p=0.0002). There were 97 respondents who filled the online survey that predominantly in young adulthood age. Respondent's insight was enhanced and they likely intend to spread the actual information to their surroundings.Conclusion: Appointing student as the spokesperson for health education can raise their social responsibility. Clarifying misinformation and health behaviour could be more influential within the same sharing community. In addition, the use of various online platforms could efficiently reach massive target, especially young ages.

Indonesia menjadi negara tertinggi kedua jumlah kasus Tuberkulosis (TB) terbanyak di dunia. Dampak TB akan lebih besar pada ibu hamil yang dapat mengakibatkan beban ganda baik bagi ibu maupun bayinya. Pemberdayaan masyarakat dalam upaya promotif dan preventif merupakan salah satu upaya strategis penanggulangan TB di Indonesia. Kader kesehatan merupakan anggota masyarakat yang peduli kesehatan dan telah dilatih mengenai tugas khusus dalam bidang kesehatan. Selama ini kegiatan kader ibu hamil belum pernah terintegrasikan dengan upaya pencegahan dan deteksi dini TB Paru dalam kehamilan. Metode kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini terdiri dari tiga bagian, yaitu pelatihan kader, tindak lanjut pelatihan, dan evaluasi. Sejumlah tiga puluh kader di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Guluk-Guluk mengikuti program ini. Rangkaian program terbukti efektif dan efisien dalam upaya peningkatan pengetahuan, baik kader maupun ibu hamil mengenai TB Paru, keterampilan kader dalam mengedukasi ibu hamil, dan cakupan skrining mandiri TB Paru oleh ibu hamil serta tindak lanjut hasil skrining oleh kader. Hal tersebut dapat dilihat dari nilai pre dan post-test yang dianalisis menggunakan uji statistik Paired T-test menunjukkan p-value: 0.00 (p-value < α: 0,05) sehingga didapatkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan kader sebelum dan setelah pelatihan, jumlah ibu hamil yang diberi edukasi oleh kader dan melakukan skrining TB Paru mandiri, serta kesan kader selama mengikuti program ini. Peran kader kesehatan ibu hamil dalam TB Paru diharapkan optimal dan dapat diterapkan di wilayah lain di Indonesia untuk mewujudkan eliminasi TB pada tahun 2030.
