Treatment of medical waste if not done properly will pose a potential hazard to health and the environment. Special treatment and facilities are needed since the waste is generated (from the cradle) until it is destroyed (to grave). Efforts to develop environmental law, especially post-Covid-19, are needed by developing the potential of local wisdom through policies to prevent environmental damage. The purpose of this research is to find out the obstacles and efforts that must be made by the government in post-Covid-19 medical waste management through local wisdom. This research method is a literature study by examining reference sources as secondary data. The results of the study show that there are still obstacles in post-Covid-19 medical waste management through local wisdom, so it is necessary to collaborate with the government with the private sector and the community in realizing environmentally friendly post-Covid-19 medical waste management.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
