ANALYSIS OF THE CRIMINAL SANCTION FOR OPPOSING COVID-19 VACCINATION PROGRAMME ON PRESIDENTIAL DECREE NUMBER 14 OF 2021

Wahyu Widodo

Abstract


The Covid-19 pandemic is a non-natural disaster that Indonesia and even the world still threatened by it. The impact of this pandemic is so great on various sectors and to overcome this, vaccines are being developed in various countries. When one of these Vaccines is ready to be used in Indonesia, for example, various conflicts ensued, where many parties refused to use this vaccine. The government was forced to move by threatening sanctions in Article 13a paragraph (4) of Presidential Decree number 14 of 2021. The imposition of this fine certainly raises pros and cons because this provision in several areas such as Jakarta imposes sanctions of up to 5 million rupiahs. This is what the authors think is interesting to study in a normative juridical study. The results of the study show that this law violates human rights as stated in Article 5 paragraph (3) of Law Number 36 of the Year 2009 although the rule can be set aside by the law if it caused a public health emergency, However, this very public health emergency itself that need to be discussed as its definition has no set of standards of what can be categorized as public health emergency and its enforcement will be hard as based on author’s research, people reject the idea of Fine Sanction, therefore it needs to be considered an alternative way such as in Australia where the government gave Incentive to entice people to administer the vaccine.
