The Spread of DHF: The Failure of Improving the Quality of Human

Life
Abstrak :

The aim of this paper is to show that the spread of DHF is related to the failure of improving the health of
the City. The resident density and mobility, and poor environment sanitation are presumed become the
trigger of the spread. Number of patients increased annually in all Kecamatan in Surabaya. This fact is
contradiction to the fast growing city. At the community side, health education including PSN (Mosquito
Nest Eradication) is still difficult to do. Apparently, most people are not aware on the importance of PSN
and other health education efforts. In the context of healthy city, as basic element of quality life of the
Citizen, the spread of the disease is an evident how difficult to build healthy public policy. It also means
that there is inequality in health for the least healthy people including poor means of improving their
health. Inequalities in health are rooted in inequities in access to basic prerequisites for health. City
development should take account for social development not only economic development.
