Abstract

The disease outbreak caused by the 2019-nCoV virus is growing so rapidly that the WHO has categorized this outbreak as a pandemic. In Indonesia, as of March 24, 2020, there were 686 patients who tested positive for the 2019-nCoV virus with 55 deaths. This has made the government extend the disaster period of the Coronavirus outbreak until the end of May 2020. Various efforts have been made by the Indonesian government, such as: opening emergency hospitals, implementing social distancing, and preventing viruses by spraying massive disinfectants. Disinfectant spraying is carried out using the help of a fire engine or using a spray device. Spraying of disinfectant is carried out on public roads and public spaces. Indonesia is starting to prepare for the new normal phase in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic which continues to infect millions of people in the world. The government has instructed that this new phase of normality can be well prepared. For the readiness of the new normal corona, the Ministry of Health and the Task Force for the Acceleration of Handling Covid-19 have compiled health protocols such as washing hands, maintaining distance, coughing, and sneezing ethics, and wearing masks. Based on the problem, an integrated sterilizer machine was developed. It can be used for workers during the New Normal phase. The machine is equipped with an automatic handwashing device, an automatic temperature gauge, and a UV booth for sterilizing goods carried by workers at Politeknik Negeri Jember.
