Background: Since 1995 Ministry of Health has made efforts to realize a clean and healthy living behavior (PHBS) for Indonesian people to improve public health status. However, the achievement of PHBS in Kolaka District has not been optimal as expected. This study aimed to determine the community’s treatment of latrines in Priority area intervention. Method: A descriptive observational with Geographic Information System (GIS) Approach was conducted in this study. Data collection was carried out by household survey using questionnaires and observation checklists. This study used simple random sampling techniques and there were 5,400 households selected as samples. Result: Based on the risk index calculation, the Sub-Districts of Iwomendaa, Wolo, Samaturu, Wundulako, and Pomalaa Sub-Districts are included in the very high-risk category. These 5 Sub Districts will be the basic of decision-making for the behavioral intervention priority program of latrines to avoid negative impacts due to unhealthy latrines. Conclusion: For preparing the clean and healthy living behavior intervention policy that focused on the latrines community’s treatment, the government needs to prioritize areas with very high-risk category.

Background: The main determinant of the degree of public health apart from environmental conditions is the behavior of the community. Riskesda 2007 data shows that only 38.7% of households that have practiced clean and healthy living behavior have practiced clean and healthy living behavior. In Baubau City, people still wash their hands and defecate improperly. So, they are still at risk of contracting infectious diseases. Objective: This study aims to determine the risk areas for clean and healthy living behavior in Baubau City. Methods: This type of research is an observational study with a Geographic Information System (GIS) approach. The number of respondents was 1.720 in 43 villages. Each village was represented by 40 respondents with the sampling method in each village namely simple random sampling. Results: Based on the calculation results obtained a maximum total risk index of 38 and a minimum total risk index of 9. to obtain an interval value is 7. Villages with clean and healthy living behavior Very high risk in 3 villages. High risk in 13 villages. Medium risk in 21 villages and less risky in 6 villages. Conclusion: Most of the villages in Baubau City are included in clean and healthy living behavior at medium risk.

“…Five hand-cleaning procedures (HCPs) were tested (see Table 1). For HCP3, time for rinsing was set at 5 s because the observational studies performed in SafeConsume [33,34] showed that this is often the case in real-life situations. HCP4 and HCP5 were tested as alternatives for situations when water is not available.…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of dirt removal (bacteria and organic matter) of several hand-cleaning procedures. The results from the hand hygiene experiment indicated that washing hands with warm water and soap for 20 s is the most effective method investigated when hands are either dirty or greasy. Even if not proper washing, rinsing under running water for 5 s is a cleaning procedure that may significantly reduce the probability of cross-contamination, as it removes 90% of the hands’ dirt. Although less effective than water and soap, the usage of antibacterial wipes was significantly more effective than wet wipes, indicating that they are a better choice when water and soap are not available. The results of this study enable us to inform consumers about the effectiveness of hand-cleaning procedures applied in their homes when cooking. Moreover, it can make consumers understand why, during the COVID-19 pandemic, authorities recommended washing hands as a preventive measure of infection and using an anti-bacterial hand gel or wiping hands with an antimicrobial wipe if water and soap are not available.
