However, efforts to overcome this outbreak have unscrupulous nurses who recommend empty vaccines. This research aims to determine law enforcement efforts against unscrupulous health workers who inject empty vaccines into vaccine recipients. This research uses the research method of literature study. Data collection techniques in this research are obtained from books, journals, and other relevant information from Google Scholar for the period 2013-2023 with several search keywords.
