Abstract

This paper aims to analyze the threat of bioterrorism and public health protection efforts. Bioterrorism is an effort to spread terrorist acts using biological agents / weapons in the form of bacteria, viruses, toxins, fungi. War through bioterrorism is very effective, because the results are clear and the possibility of being accused of human rights violations or extra ordinary crimes is also difficult to prove. This study uses a normative juridical approach, and secondary data as the main data supported by primary data. The secondary data in the form of primary, secondary and tertiary legal materials are analyzed qualitatively. Based on the analysis it was revealed that even though the Indonesian government had ratified Law Number 5 Year 2018 related to the Eradication of Crime of Terrorism, this law had not specifically regulated the prevention of the threat of bioterrorism, so that implementation regulations were still needed in detail. Besides that, the Indonesian people themselves still demographically still have a very low level of awareness of the dangers of biological weapons.
