Main Article Content
Abstract
Until now, confirmed cases of COVID-19 continue to increase. This virus spreads throughout Indonesia, including the village area of Danda Jaya. Some time ago, Danda Jaya village had become a red zone, so this area needs special attention. One of the efforts that can be made to break the chain of spread and transmission of this virus is to increase the body's resistance by consuming herbal plants that act as immunomodulators. The community service methods used are online and offline. 10 participants took part in the offline activities at the Danda Jaya village office, while the online method was carried out by distributing leaflets on Instagram and videos on YouTube. The results of this community service program show that the community knows what herbal plants can be used as an immune booster and they are interested in growing these plants in their homes for their consumption. The conclusion of the activities carried out received a positive response from the community in Danda Jaya village and social media users, shown by their enthusiasm and increased knowledge.
