Perak Health Center has the highest incidence of dengue cases in Jombang. Mosquito nest eradication activities in the Perak Health Center's working area are not optimal, seen from the larva free rate which is still below 95%. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of ABJ on the incidence of DHF in the Work Area of the Perak Health Center, Jombang Regency.
Observational analytical quantitative research with an evaluation approach using Spearman correlation test data processing to determine the effect of ABJ on DHF cases in Perak Health Center. The data was processed from January 2019 to December 2020.
