COMMUNITY CAPACITY BUILDING IN MAINTAINING IMMUNITY TO PREVENT RHINITIS

Abstract

Rhinitis is one of the diseases associated with immune instability.
Efforts to prevent the recurrence of rhinitis include maintaining
immunity, avoiding allergies, practicing good stress management, and
eating a diet that is in accordance with healthy living guidelines.
Rihinits can reduce the quality of life of sufferers; therefore, it is
necessary to make efforts to prevent the disease through community
capacity-building activities related to rhinits. We used a virtual talk
show on the Zoom meeting platform for 60 minutes as the method.
Forty participants attended the activity, achieving a pretest score of
84.7 and a posttest score of 89.4. Thus, the community's capacity to
increase immunity and prevent rhinitis has increased. In order to
improve the health status of people with immune disorders, especially
rhinitis, we expect this activity to continue in different places and with
different participants
