the respiratory system causing pneumonia, which was first discovered at the end of
December 2019 from the Huanan seafood market in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China

of RT 01 in Sengkan Hamlet, Sumber Gareng Village, Sukorejo District. The
sample in this study were 50 people. The research instrument is using a
questionnaire containing questions about COVID-19. Based on table 4.5 shows that
some of the respondents have a good understanding after being given health
education through lectures as many as 38 respondents (76%). Wilcoxon signed rank
test results if significant (ρ) < 0.05 (error rate 5%) then H0 is rejected, and vice
versa if value > 0.05 then H1 is accepted. In this study, it was found to be significant
at 0.000, so value <0.05, which means that there is an effect of health education
through lectures on the level of public knowledge about COVID-19. This shows
that good health education will be followed by a good level of public knowledge
