Abstract

Coronavirus Disease (Covid-19) is an infectious disease of the respiratory tract with coronavirus as the main pathogen. Coronavirus Disease is a new type of virus that has never been previously identified in humans. Corona viruses are zoonic (transmitted between animals and humans). As of April 30, 2020, based on the latest data from the World Health Organization (WHO), it shows that in Southeast Asia, Indonesia occupies the second highest position for a country with a number of confirmed Covid-19 cases, namely 9,771 cases with 784 patients dying. Patients who died not only because of the corona virus, but had previously experienced complications or had comorbidities, one of which was hypertension. In Indonesia, an internal medicine specialist Tunggul D Situmorang in his explanation confirmed that comorbid factors such as comorbidities worsen the clinical symptoms of Covid-19 due to having a lower immune system. Writing the Community Service (KKN-PKP) aims to increase the knowledge and awareness of the entire community about the effects of comorbid diseases such as hypertension on Covid-19 by making articles and conveying them to the public through the national printed mass media. The result of this activity is the publication of articles that convey information to the public. The articles made were published in the section Above, B7 health in the paper. The impact of this activity is smooth access to information or knowledge for loyal readers of the printed mass media (Waspada Daily newspaper), especially for people who find it difficult to access information through electronic mass media.
