“…This outbreak radar will notify users when users travel to a high-risk area (e.g., high number of stray dog populations, high rabies cases, and low dogs vaccination coverage). As a result, users should be prepared to manage the rabies risk when visiting certain areas [ 22 ].…”

Background and Aim: Rabies remains a public health concern in Indonesia, and the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has stymied rabies prevention and control efforts. There is a need to transform the rabies program to be adaptable to pandemic situations to improve program coverage on dog vaccination and rabies surveillance. This study aimed to create a rabies control (RaCon) mobile application for a community-based rabies surveillance system during COVID-19 in Bali, Indonesia. Materials and Methods: We employ the Design Science Research methodology. Surveillance officers, veterinarians, community leaders, outreach workers, and dog owners participated in a series of offline in-depth interviews and focus group discussions. The RaCon prototype was evaluated using the Post-Study System Usability Questionnaire (PSSUQ) framework, which included the system's usefulness, information quality, and interface quality. In this study, we used both a qualitative (n=50) and quantitative (n=342) approach. Results: According to the findings of this study, integrating public health and animal health into the rabies surveillance system are critical to supporting the One Health approach and encouraging community engagement in rabies programs. The RaCon prototype is expected to include features such as pet ownership, case report, news and announcements, nearest vet, health information, outbreak radar, emergency call, and app feedback. The RaCon prototype passed both qualitative and quantitative evaluations, indicating that it could be used to support the rabies surveillance system, particularly in the COVID-19 situation. Conclusion: The RaCon prototype was accepted by the users and got positive feedback in terms of the system's usefulness, information quality, and interface quality dimension. As a result, this prototype has the potential to be integrated into the rabies surveillance system in Bali, particularly to strengthen the community-based rabies surveillance system. Even though this prototype received positive feedback, this study focuses solely on the design development and evaluation of its user interface. As a result, further development is required before incorporating RaCon into the rabies prevention and control program.

“…These results are similar to studies in Italy, where most travelers have a low knowledge of the risks and health problems that often occur in destinations country. 21 The characteristics of backpackers' trip, which more often explore the remote areas, have put them to be more prone of contracting rabid animals, 4 due to the presence of stray dogs, bats and monkeys, 22 moreover in Bali, rabies is endemic. 23 In addition, traveling to places where hygiene and sanitation standards are lacking will increase the risk of developing diarrhoea.…”

International travel to a country has potentially carry health risks for travelers, including backpackers. To date, little is known about Travel Health knowledge and perception among foreign backpackers traveling to Bali. This study aimed to explore the level of knowledge and perception, as well as health information that backpackers need in their destination, Bali. This was a descriptive cross-sectional study, conducted from December 2017 to January 2018 in Bali. This study involved 133 backpackers, taken by convenience sampling technique. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire and were analysed descriptively. The results showed that backpackers’ knowledge was inadequate, especially to common diseases or health problems that occurred to travelers in Bali. There were 94.74% have low knowledge about rabies, 48.87% have less knowledge about methanol poisoning and 58.65% have low knowledge about diarrhoea. A total of 69.18% backpackers have a perception that they were not prone to being exposed to diseases and health problems in Bali and 36.84% were not aware that they had to seek health information before traveling to Bali. Almost all stated that they needed complete, destination-specific health information. It is necessary to increase backpackers’ knowledge and awareness regarding Travel Health at the destination. The development of integrated health promotion media about travel health in Bali, in form of web-based or application-based is one of the strategies to consider.

“…"Most of the KLL (traffic accidents) because they don't know the terrain, because they rent a motorbike or car, Senggigi road is hilly because there are stray dogs so they have accidents due to themselves." (TU Informant,32 Years Old) In the research conducted by Wirawan et al(2020)The most common trauma mechanism when traveling is falls (53%), traffic accidents (30%), water sports accidents (6%) and others. Accidents do not only occur on the road but can also occur while swimming, such as drowning and being swept away by coastal currents, which are included in physical hazards.…”

The West Nusa Tenggara Province (NTB) is designated as a Special Economic Zone (SEZ), where the direction of development is tourism. North Lombok is one of the districts with a developing tourist area. The tourist areas of North Lombok regency are mostly located in the working area of the Nipah Health Center.Tourism can have both positive and negative impacts. One of them is tourism health problem. This study aims to determine the perspective of health workers related to tourism health problems in the working area of the Nipah Health Center. Researchers used qualitative research design with a phenomenological approach. The researcher used purposive sampling technique with data collection method using observation and in-depth interviews with the five informants. The results of the study based on the perspective of health workers in the working area of the Nipah Health Center showed tourism health problems including sunburn, heat stroke (physical hazard), food poisoning (chemical hazard), insect bites, mosquitoes and food contamination by flies (biological hazard) and traffic accidents. , drowning, impaled by marine animals such as sea urchins, jellyfish (mechanical hazard). Prevention and handling carried out include free health checks, counseling, formation of Disaster Preparedness Team (TAGANA) and coordination with related parties.
