- Abstract
Corona Virus Disease Pandemic 2019 (COVID-19) has had a far-reaching impact on public health aspects, especially in Indonesia; various efforts have been made by the Government and Local Government in the framework of countering the pandemic, one of which is by setting various laws and regulations as one of the areas most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In November 2020, the Local Government of Jakarta issued the Provincial Regulation of DKI Jakarta No. 2 of 2020 on Corona Virus Disease Prevention 2019, which contained criminalization for everyone who deliberately refuses COVID-19 vaccination. This paper aims to parse the formulation of criminalization in the Regulation for COVID-19 vaccination objectors associated with the right to determine for themselves the health services necessary for themselves and the Siracusa Principles (principles on the provisions of restrictions and reduction of rights stipulated in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights). The research method used is juridical normative with the approach of legislation. The results showed that the criminalization of COVID-19 vaccination objectors in local regulations is contrary to the right to self-determine the health services needed for itself and the Siracusa Principles.
