Secondary Organization of Quarantine A comparative Study

Abstract

Through this research, we dealt with some aspects of quarantine by comparing with some laws and special instructions that dealt with this subject, and we focused on the provisions that deal with this subject, such as the rights and obligations of the interdicted, as well as the responsibility for violating the provisions of the quarantine, through our review of the comparative laws, we find that they did not distinguish between the provisions of the quarantine and its procedures in the usual time and its provisions at the time of the epidemic or pandemic, it also regulated the provisions of individual quarantine only and did not address the provisions of group quarantine, therefore, we suggested to the Iraqi legislator to legislate a new public health law in which the provisions of quarantine are organized in a detailed manner, provided that this organization is based on weighting between the requirements of public health and the requirements of human dignity.
