ANALISIS HUBUNGAN USIA, JENIS KELAMIN, KOMORBID, RIWAYAT PERJALANAN, DAN KONTAK ERAT DENGAN KEJADIAN OMICRON PADA SAMPEL COVID-19 DI SUMATERA SELATAN
The Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic is not over. A new variant of concern for SARS-CoV-2 is Omicron (B.1.1.529). Omicron quickly replaced Delta as the dominant variant globally. Local transmission of the Omicron variant risks increasing the number of COVID-19 cases sharply as happened in the second wave due to the Delta variant and poses a threat to the health care system. This study aims to analyze the relationship between age, gender, comorbidities, travel history, and close contact with the incidence of Omicron in South Sumatra. The method used is analytic observational with a case control approach. The case sample consisted of 90 respondents who were Omicron positive and the control sample consisted of 360 respondents who were negative Omicron. The total sample is 450 respondents. Data were analyzed using Chi-square test and multiple logistic regression. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between age (p-value 0.041, OR=1.854), gender (p-value 0.017, OR=1.816), comorbidities (p-value 0.005, OR=2.015), travel history (p -value 0.000, OR=2.707), and close contact (p-value 0.018, OR=2.115). Travel history is the dominant risk factor for the occurrence of Omicron which has a risk of 2,549 times higher than respondents who do not have a travel history. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that age, gender, comorbidities, travel history, and close contacts are risk factors for the occurrence of Omicron in the COVID-19 sample in South Sumatra. Prevention efforts need to be made to control the spread of Omicron in South Sumatra. Keywords: COVID-19, Omicron, Comorbid, Travel History, Close Contact
