“…In addition to being used as a tool for communication, social media also serves as a very successful platform in various other areas, including public administration, higher education, product marketing, and customer relationship IAPA 2022 management [3]. Many ideas have been raised on social media, especially concerning interesting contemporary issues that have been frequently discussed on Twitter, like COVID-19 [4][5] that affected many sectors of our daily life [6] [7]. Several public policies, particularly those relating to the treatment of COVID-19, have finally been acknowledged by social media users, leading to discourses that are highly sought after by all social media users [8].…”

Social media is a product of technological advances that can influence how problems are formulated and act as a trigger for social change. Social media can provide data and act as a tool for policymakers to determine the effectiveness and acceptability of the current policy model, including the policy for handling COVID-19. Thus, this research analyzes the netizens’ opinions and responses regarding the policies for handling COVID-19 in Bandung City. Data was collected through the interaction of network data between users on social media to describe the interaction pattern between netizens on Twitter and YouTube about handling COVID-19 in Bandung City. The results revealed that most netizens highlighted the emerging policies in the health sector before moving to other sectors. The highlighted result was proven by the most frequently used word on social media that is vaccines. The research results also had limitations because they did not compare how other cities handled COVID-19 with Bandung City while collecting the data online through interactions and discussions. Keywords: policy integration, Netizen perception, COVID-19, social media, network visualization

“…It is caused by SARS-COV 2, which belongs to the same large family of coronaviruses that causes SARS but is of a different type of virus [4], [5]. It has a very high mortality rate due to its rapid and extensive spread [4] and was eventually declared a national disaster in Indonesia [6]. Lockdowns were implemented worldwide to break its rapid spread, but they seriously affected a country's economic situation.…”

The SARS-CoV-2 virus has been the precursor of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The symptoms of COVID-19 begin with the common cold and then become very severe, such as those of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). Currently, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is used to detect COVID-19 accurately, but it causes some side effects to the patient when the test is performed. Therefore, the proposed "Roboswab" was developed that uses thermal imaging to measure non-contact facial and oral temperature. This study focuses on the performance of the proposed equipment in measuring facial and oral temperature from various distances. Face detection also involves checking whether the subject is wearing a mask or not. Image processing methods with thermal imaging and robotic manipulators are integrated into a contact-free detector that is inexpensive, accurate, and painless. This research has successfully detected masked or non-masked faces and accurately detected facial temperature. The results showed that the accurate measurement of facial temperature with a mask is 90% with an error of +/- 0.05%, while it was 100% without a mask. On the other hand, the oral temperature was measured with 97% accuracy and an error of less than 5%. The optimal distance of the Roboswab to the face for measuring temperature is an average of 60 cm. The Roboswab tool equipped with masked or non-masked face detection can be used for early detection of COVID-19 without direct contact with patients.

The COVID-19 pandemic has not only affected public health but has also significantly impacted the economy. Bandung, a bustling city in Indonesia serving as a satellite to the capital, has been hit hard due to its high population density, mobility, and reliance on the tourism, trade, and transportation sectors. Using a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model developed at the inter-regional level of Indonesia, this study investigates the microeconomic indicators of several economic activities in Bandung to assess the impact of the pandemic. Additionally, the study examines the role of private sector actors in contributing to the sustainable recovery efforts toward achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) amidst the pandemic. The findings reveal that Bandung's transportation, accommodation, food and beverage, water supply, and trade sectors experienced a significant decline in economic activity. However, there was a gradual recovery with increased economic activity between 2019 and 2021. Private sector actors and the health sector were the main drivers of economic recovery, with other sectors also contributing to the efforts.
