Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Desa Jungsemi di Masa Pandemi Covid 19 Melalui Pelatihan Pembuatan Hand Sanitizer dan Pelindung Wajah

Abstract

During the coronavirus pandemic, there was a devastating effect on the social and economic sector and it was occurred in all segment of society. Social restrictions on some activities need to be done to prevent the potential spread of this corona virus. New adaptation patterns by engaging in healthy behaviors, such as washing hands with soap, avoiding crowds, or using masks or face shields, are quite effective to prevent transmission of the corona virus. When hand washing facilities are not available in any place,the use of hand sanitizers is expected to minimize transmission of the virus to others. In addition, hand sanitizer products can also be said to be quite practical in their use because they can be carried easily. Based on these reasons, the PPDM team collaborated with the Covid 19 Task Force and the Biology Education Laboratory of the Universitas PGRI Semarang to provide training in the manufacture of hand sanitizers and face shields for residents of Jungsemi Village. The aim of this training is to train villagers to be able to exploit the potential of this business during the pandemic. In addition, it also used to provide socialization about healthy behavior which will later become a new adaptation pattern during this pandemic.
