Abstract

The views of world countries on the handling of the Covid-19 Pandemic give the impression of solving the global health crisis. Whereas international law is a special mechanism in handling pandemics through the operationalization of International Health Regulations which are coordinated globally by the WHO international organization. The aim is to examine the implications of force on international law. The main approach to legal research method is to apply a total lockdown or physical distancing in accordance with the health protocol established by WHO. By elaborating, international law contains obligations, authorities, procedures, and roles and challenges faced in handling a global pandemic. Finding the fact that, IHR 2005 works on international law, but a 'one size fits all' instrument that can solve all the problems of handling the positive sum global health crisis to interdependence, institutionalism, multilateralism, and a zero-sum game democratic system where the state is strengthening.
