Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic is not over yet, it has a global impact on all sectors of people's lives. Of the various problems that arise but we are not aware of is the generation of infectious waste originating from self-isolation. Therefore, this study was intended to explore the management of infectious waste generation from selfisolation activities carried out at the regional level in Java and Bali. Observational research design in 1979 respondents were sanitarian workers in the working area of the Puskesmas and the Health Office in 7 provinces of Java and Bali. The study was conducted for the period from June to the end of August 2021 using an online survey of members of the Association of Environmental Health Experts whose assessment was carried out using a qualitative method based on respondents' responses. The findings of this study indicate that the highest incidence of COVID-19 cases is DKI Jakarta (29.6%) followed by Central Java (22.5%) and West Java (20.3%). 48%, the most widely used isolation places are special buildings 27.5% and 34.5% there are no special places or at home. Self-isolation places that carry out infectious waste management have only reached 34.6% and mostly 79.2% are carried out independently by providing special infectious waste, separate trash bins and plastic tubs with markings, spraying disinfection, storage time is carried out every day and final disposal is dumped or burned, while most of the supervision is carried out by the community's own individuals.
