Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is an escalating public health problem in Bogor City, with 3,094 cases reported in 2024 and 176 cases recorded at Bogor Utara Public Health Center, indicating persistent and difficult-to-control transmission. This study analyzed the association between selected risk factors and DHF incidence in the working area of Warung Jambu Public Health Center from 2024 to June 2025. An analytic quantitative study with a cross-sectional design was conducted, using accidental sampling to recruit 50 respondents. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test. The findings showed that education level, water storage container draining practices, types of water storage containers, and the habit of hanging clothes were significantly associated with DHF incidence (p < 0.05), while age and sex were not significantly associated (p > 0.05). The study concludes that improving community education and strengthening household water storage management and clothing storage behaviors are essential for DHF prevention, supported by coordinated government actions and active community participation to reduce transmission.
