Abstract
Rabies is an acute infectious disease of the central nervous system transmitted through the bite of Rabies-Transmitting Animals (HPR), especially dogs. This disease has a mortality rate of almost 100% if not treated properly. This study aims to determine factors related to rabies prevention measures in the community in Pondok Batu Village, Sarudik District, Central Tapanuli Regency. The study used an analytical survey design with a quantitative approach and a cross-sectional design. The sample of the study was 70 heads of families selected by simple random sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using the chi-square test. The results showed that the majority of respondents had insufficient knowledge (63.8%) and negative attitudes (66.4%), as well as inadequate preventive measures (77.6%). Statistical tests showed a significant relationship between knowledge (p = 0.000; C = 0.541) and attitudes (p = 0.001; C = - 0.295) with rabies prevention measures. The conclusion of this study is that community knowledge and attitudes are related to rabies prevention measures. It is recommended that health workers increase education and encourage pet vaccination to minimize the risk of rabies transmission.
