Denpasar, LPM SS-Monday 26th June 2022, a supplementary meeting on Kersos Keswan XXXVII was held at Gedung Dikti Denpasar. This meeting was attended by 102 participants from the batch 2019. This activity is the initial activity before the Kersos Keswan XXXVII is held on June 29 to July 1, 2022. This activity aims to provide direction to students during the 37th Kersos Keswan period which is located in Klungkung. Participants are expected to be able to understand and make this activity a place to train participants' psychomotor during the activity. 

The first briefing was given by the Head of Livestock and Animal Health Division of the Klungkung Regency Agriculture Service named drh. AA Gede Raka Arnawa. He delivered material about the location or map of Klungkung Regency which would be used to carry out activities and handle cases there. Kersos Keswan Participants will be divided into several groups which will be placed in certain villages where they will provide vaccines for livestock and pets there. In closing, drh. Raka gave a message to all participants to ask permission from the animal owner before giving the vaccine.

The second briefing was given by Prof. Dr. drh. I Ketut Puja, M. Kes. regarding rabies. He explained how to educate the people in Klungkung regarding rabies, the risks of mistakes that occur when giving injections, how to inject and handling properly of animals. Given that there are still many cases of rabies in the Klungkung area, Prof. Puja advised to pay attention to the prevention of bites, care, prevention, and treatment of rabies. 

 

The next activity is counseling from drh. I Wayan Sukernayasa, SKH, M.Si as the supervising lecturer with discussions on biosecurity and how to provide good individual counseling and education, especially regarding rabies and its vaccines. There are still many animal owners who don't believe in animal treatments, therefore, we as students can provide an education that it's not because of the vaccine that kills the animal, but because there are animals whose disease is unknown and comes in contact with the owner's pets. Hopefully, this activity can provide the community in Klungkung with better education regarding the handling of animals affected by rabies and emphasize the provision of vaccines for livestock and pets.
