This study used a qualitative descriptive method. Data collection techniques were carried out using the documentation study technique and by conducting a forum group discussion. Data analysis using an interactive model adopted from Miles. The effectiveness of PSBB in West Java in the first period of 14 days has not been reached, thus requiring an additional period of validity to increase the level of success in achieving policy objectives.
