According to the Indonesian Health Survey (SKI) report from the Ministry of Health (Kemenkes), the prevalence of asthma based on doctor's diagnosis in the Indonesian population of all ages reached 1.6% in 2023.

Meanwhile, North Sumatra had the lowest asthma prevalence at 0.5%. This was followed by Papua Pegunungan and Jambi at 0.7% and 0.8% respectively.

The following is a list of the 10 provinces with the highest national asthma prevalence in 2023:

1. Yogyakarta Special Region: 3.5%
2. West Java: 2.4%
3. East Kalimantan: 2.4%

Citing the Kemenkes website, asthma is a type of disease characterized by narrowing and inflammation of the airways, resulting in shortness of breath.

In addition to making it difficult for sufferers to breathe, asthma also causes other symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, and chest pain. Therefore, asthma sufferers are more sensitive than people without asthma.
