Abstract

This paper aims to identify the impact on public health and find solutions to problems. The author believes that the impact of the covid Pandemic, especially on health, is not only felt by urban communities but also by people who live in urban areas. To identify these impacts, researchers have collected many evidence studies or scientific findings from various sources of scientific literature in the form of books, press conferences, scientific publications, journals, and many websites that actively voice the impacts and problems faced when a pandemic hits not only health but all life activities. We took the evidence in the form of a scientific report and examined it under a phenomenological approach, which collects data and analyzes it, and then takes the relevant essence to answer the problems we are researching. The study involved a sharp interpretation of the evaluation data, coding the data, and drawing conclusions that we can answer valid questions. In economic hardship and causing significant stress, which is all because they are the society which is difficult to adapt because they are economically disadvantaged and in health services.
