The World Health Organization (WHO) officially declared the COVID-19 corona virus as a pandemic in March 2020. The growth of Covid-19 cases in Indonesia is included as the fastest growth. On March 26th 2020, the number of cases has reached 893 cases with a cure rate of 4% and a mortality rate of 9%. The spread of the virus happens through the liquid droplets spread by someone positive for Covid-19. Prevention of pandemic transmission that can be done by us is by staying at home, using masks when leaving the house and washing hands frequently, this is one of the public's preparations, which must be done to reduce the cases of Covid-19 pandemic. The phenomenon that happens in a community is there are still many people who ignores the protocols such as staying at home, using masks when leaving the house, of course this will make the cases of Covid 19 hardly stop the transmission of Covid-19, so preparation is very important against the Covid 19’s outbreak, with this preparation hopefully, the community will have the same concern in facing the Covid 19’s outbreak together.
