Abstract: Yaws is caused by spiral bacillus called
treponema perteneu. It is a human
infectious disease which commonly
attacks skin and
bones. The prevalence of
yaws in Indonesia was
less than 1
per 10,000 people but
there were places with high
prevalence such as Provinces
of West Papua, Papua, South East of Sulawesi, Nusa Tenggara Timur and Maluku. The prevalence of yaws
in Jayapura Municipality in 2007 was
5.4 per 10,000 people.

and behavioral factors
of the occurence of
yaws at Jayapura Municipality.
Method: The study was observational with case
control study design. Sample of
the study consisted of
84 cases and 84
control subjects. Data were analyzed
using computer with 2 x 2

risk factors for
the occurence of yaws:
house condition (occupancy density, OR=2,5, availability of
clean water, OR=5.9), and
behavior (taking a bath, OR=3.8).
