Abstract
This community service is entitled "Health Socialization and Education Beware of Covid-19 Vaccine Hoax (Facts and Myths) in Duren Mekar Village, Depok City". The purpose of this community service activity is to provide knowledge about the Covid-19 vaccine to the community, explain facts and myths about the Covid-19 vaccine, and present effective forms of communication to educate the public about the provision of Covid-19 vaccination. The method of implementing this community service is carried out in several stages of activity, namely the licensing stage, the survey stage, and the socialization stage. This licensing stage is carried out by first taking care of permits in order to be able to carry out community service in Duren Mekar Village, Depok City. After taking care of permits and obtaining permits, it continues with the survey stage, namely conducting site surveys and conducting gatherings with local community leaders to convey the aims and objectives of this community service. In the survey stage, collaboration was also carried out, and determined a schedule for community service implementation activities. In the licensing and survey stages, the team also made preparations for the preparation of the material to be given, the schedule for each session of material giving, and the division of tasks during the event.
Furthermore, after the licensing and survey stages have been carried out, the next stage of socialization is the implementation of "Health Socialization and Education Beware of Covid-19 Vaccine Hoax (Facts and Myths)". The implementing team for this activity is STIKes Widya Dharma Husada lecturers as many as 10 people and 2 students. The community service team provided material on "Beware of the Covid-19 Vaccine Hoax (Facts and Myths)" and distributed free masks and multivitamins to the community. This community service activity went smoothly and the community was very enthusiastic, so it can be concluded that educating the community directly and interactively is more efficient and effective to provide understanding to the community but must still be carried out in accordance with the 5M health protocol in this New Normal period. The conclusion of this community service activity is that before the socialization activity took place, almost all participants still lacked or did not understand the Covid-19 vaccine and the importance of participating in the Covid-19 vaccine. The hope of carrying out this activity is that the public will not receive erroneous information or in this case hoaxes about the Covid-19 vaccine circulating among the public which can affect public participation in the vaccination program carried out by the government.
