Abstract:
The world at the beginning of 2020 was shocked by the outbreak of the Corona Virus (Covid-19) which attacked almost all regions of the world. The Corona outbreak has attacked almost all circles of society (politicians, doctors, businessmen and all professions) without exception. Until now (April 2020) the spread of the virus has continued, although in certain areas it has started to decrease. This study seeks to identify the impacts that occur in rural communities, especially for their economic and social life. This identification is needed in order to grow awareness among rural communities about the need to live healthily through the Covid-19 literacy education process. The purpose of this research is to describe the condition of rural communities that are affected by the economy and educate rural communities through awareness of Covid-19 literacy in order to provide knowledge about the importance of living a healthy and safe life from Covid-19. In addition, it is also to prepare rural communities to face the new normal, a condition of society that requires a new order that seeks to escape the physical and psychological pressures caused by Covid-19 by using simple language that is easily understood by rural communities. Rural communities also do not need to drag on in sadness and must provide new motivation to rise
