The number of respondents in this study was 80, and the samples were gathered using a purposive sampling technique. The data collection tool employs a questionnaire sheet and the Ag-RDT screening method to examine covid-19 suspected. Univariate data analysis with frequency distribution, bivariate data analysis with chi square test, and multivariate data analysis with logistic regression were employed in this studyResults: According to the bivariate analysis, there was a 0.000 p value relationship between mothers and the results of the covid-19 screening, a 0.031 p value relationship between the mother's attitude and the results of the incidence of suspected covid-19 and a 0.005 p value relationship between the implementation of the health protocol and the results of the incidence of suspected covid-19. With a significance value of 0.000, the results of the multivariate analysis of the independent variables have a joint effect on the assessment of thi incidence of suspected covid-19.
