Abstract

During the covid-19 pandemic,  many parents are worried about providing basic immunizations for their infants. This caused the basic immunization coverage at Gandusari Public Health Service in Blitar Regency in April 2020 to decrease by 4.9%, and in May 2020 to decrease by 19.7%. This study objective to determine the correlation of  knowledge about covid-19 and the timeliness of basic immunization in infants.

The independent variable was knowledge about covid-19, while the dependent variable was the timeliness of basic immunization in infants. The population were all parents who had infants as many as 87 parents. This study using simple random sampling. The sample size was 71 parents. The instruments were maternal and child health book and questionnaires. The data were analyzed using chi square test. The results showed that p value 0.001 < 0.05 that there were any correlation of knowledge about covid-19 and the timeliness of basic immunization  in  infants.  The  sufficient  knowledge  of  parents  about  covid-19  made parents  hesitate  to  immunize  their  infants.  Providing  basic  immunization  to  infants during a pandemic is not prohibited as long as they comply with health protocols.
