Abstrakt: Since the Covid-19 pandemic was started in Indonesia in March 2020, huge action has been done by the Government including constitutes policies on handling the Coronavirus. One of the important things to prevent being infected with the Coronavirus is to keep the hands sanitized. It can be done either wash using soap or sanitized using hand sanitizer. However, some problems may occur in the distribution of hand sanitizers, such as undirected delivery or waste of transportation distribution costs for delivery. This research aims to determine an optimal distribution route for hand sanitizer to some public facilities in Palembang City, Indonesia as input for the Government in preventing the spread of the virus. The Nearest Neighbour and Sweep algorithm was applied to fulfill the objective of the study. For this study, two public services were set as origin points and 30 public facilities as destination points. The optimal distribution route result is based on the Nearest Neighbor method with a total distance of 136.56 Km and a total time of 423 minutes, compared to the Sweep algorithm method. By applying the suggested route based on the Nearest Neighbor methods, the total cost is estimated 2.1% less compared to the distribution route on the Sweep algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
