Abstract

Masalah HIV/AIDS di Indonesia diyakini bagaikan fenomena gunung es karena laporan resmi jumlah kasus tidak mencerminkan masalah yang sebenarnya. Prediksi besar masalah HIV/AIDS tersebut didasarkan atas jumlah penyalahgunaan narkotika suntik dan prostitusi yang tinggi. Keduanya merupakan faktor utama yang berperan sangat besar dalam penyebaran dan penularan HIV. Berbagai faktor risiko tersebut tidak hanya berkaitan dengan pelayanan keseha-tan tetapi juga dengan masalah sosial ekonomi. Permasalahan tersebut perlu diatasi dengan pendekatan pelayanan kesehatan primer komprehensif yang langsung menyentuh akar permasalahan mencakup masalah sosial ekonomi dan lingkungan kultural. Strategi tersebut dilakukan melalui berbagai langkah yang bersifat menyeluruh, meliputi preventif, promotif, kuratif dan rehabilitatif dengan partisipasi dan kerja sama yang luas yang melibatkan berbagai sektor dan organisasi non pemerintah dan masyarakat. Beberapa langkah yang harus dilakukan meliputi edukasi dan promosi, pelayanan kesehatan yang merata dan terjangkau. Selain itu yang juga tidak kalah pentingnya adalah pengentasan kemiskinan melalui peningkatan lapangan kerja dan kelibatan partisipasi masyarakat.

HIV/AIDS problem in Indonesia is considered as iceberg phenomenon, where the reported cases in the government official record do not represent the real situation. This prediction is based on high number of vulnerable groups such as sexual workers and injecting drug users. These factors are not only related to healthcare services but also social economic structure. Therefore, to address this problem, comprehensive Primary Health Care (PHC) must be imple-mented. The comprehensive PHC concerns on underlying problem which includes socioeconomic issues and environment problems. This strategy is conducted through holistic activities from preventive, promotive, curative and rehabilitative through collaboration with other sectors and community involvement. Based on underlying HIV/AIDS problem in Indonesia, there are several strategies that should be done to address the problem, such as education campaign, addressing poverty issue, equitable health services and community participation.
