Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is an endemic disease in Medan City. Climate changes transition dynamic (behavior, biological cycles, species) of disease vectors and population density leads to an increased contact between vectors and humans. This study was aimed to analyze spatially distribution of dengue fever based on climatic conditions and population density in Medan City with an ecological study approach by using secondary data. Data analysis was carried out univariately, bivariately by using the Spearman and Pearson correlation test. The results showed statistically that there was a relationship between the incidence of DHF with air temperature (r = -0.374 and p = 0.001), humidity (r = -0.370 and p = 0.001), while the incidence of DHF had no relationship with rainfall (r = 0.078 and p = 0.516) and population density (r = -0.180 and p = 0.067). From the spatially results, high-risk areas for DHF are Medan Tuntungan District, Medan Johor, Medan Denai, Medan Selayang, Medan Sunggal, Medan Helvetia, Medan Deli
