ABSTRACT
Background: The current Covid-19 pandemic is not over. Everyone still needs to do Covid-19 prevention behavior. One of them is children.

ABSTRACT
Introduction: Indonesia has experienced a crisis due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Both adults and children are affected by the crisis. The incidence of COVID-19 in children is not as many as in adults, but prevention efforts need to be done by families. Likewise for children with special needs. The article aims to explain family effort in preventing COVID-19 on children with special needs. Method: A systematic literature review was conducted to identify papers on family efforts to prevent COVID-19 in children with special needs using the PubMed databases between 1(st) of January and 31(st) of December 2020. The search identified 15 relevant scientific papers. Results: Indonesia has 80 million children (about 30 percent of the population), and although the health risk from COVID-19 infection is lower in children compared to the older age group, children are most likely to be severely affected by COVID-19 in both the short and long term. Family efforts during the pandemic COVID-19 aim to provide necessities and care, provide nutritional needs, maintain children learning process, protect children from violence, exploitation, and abuse. Conclusion: Family efforts in preventing COVID-19 include providing knowledge, regional authority, mental health services, finance, nutrition and health, education, and child protection. Studies regarding the impact of COVID-19 on children with special needs have been undertaken, although not many
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: The nursing students should ideally represent relevant and skillful behavior in developing science. Recently, the classical teaching and learning process involving interaction between students was shifted into online learning due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. That ideal condition could not be reached. As a result, the online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic triggers students to deal with stressors such as academic assignments, the difficulty in adapting to home environment, no face-to-face meeting with the fellow students. AIM: The researcher was aimed to analyze students' coping strategies for burnout and fatigue from online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS: It was a quantitative research with a descriptive correlation design and cross-sectional approach. The population of the research was the students in the second semester of the undergraduate program in nursing Universitas Muhammadiyah Semarang. The sample of the research was 83 respondents, which were taken using a purposive sampling technique. RESULTS: Most of the nursing students were positive coping with 47 respondents (56.6%), severe burnout with 71 respondents (85.5%), and fatigue was found in 40 respondents (48.2%);meanwhile, the rest 43 respondents (52.8%) did not experience fatigue. Base on Pearson test, there was a significant correlate between nursing students coping and fatigue (0.00) with moderate correlation at 0.518, although no correlation coping with burnout. CONCLUSION: It is expected for the institution to conduct training about more interactive online learning accessible by the student and train a positive coping mechanism to cope with burnout and fatigue.
