Results: The results showed that the variable clinical symptoms associated with the microscopic examination is fever (p = 0.001), chills (p = 0.000) and joint pain (p = 0.005). Multivariate logistic regression test with in getting the symptoms of chills, diarrhea and joint pain as an algorithm with sensitivity (74.28%) and specificity (85.98%).
