THE ROLE OF STATE ADMINISTRATIVE LAW IN MASS VACCINATION IMPLEMENTATION FOR COMMUNITY IMMUNITY IN INDONESIA

ABSTRACT: Today’s world is confronted with a slew of growing and more complex health issues, one of which is the issue of epidemiological transmission. Epidemiology of transition or changes in disease patterns is a state of change in disease patterns in which infectious diseases remain unresolved while non-communicable diseases continue to rise. Several factors contribute to this change, including an unhealthy lifestyle such as smoking, imbalance, sedentary body habits, no diet, accidents, and acts of violence. Because of the rapid pace of modernization and the development of new values as a result of the current swift currents of globalization, these lifestyle changes tend to be unhealthy. Transitional epidemiology is characterized by re-emerging diseases such as polio, as well as new types of infectious diseases that did not previously exist (new emerging diseases) such as the Corona Virus (Covid-19). Indonesia is currently undergoing a Covid-19 vaccination program. The Covid19 vaccination campaign began on January 13th, 2021, with President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) receiving the first injection. The government intends to inject the vaccine into as many as 181.5 million people, or 70% of the total population, within 12 months to achieve community immunity, also known as herd immunity. The program is implemented through two schemes: free government vaccinations and independent pathways for workers and workers whose costs are borne by the company.
