Sažetak

Stigma is a convoluted interaction between history, sociology, psychology, medicine, anthropology, and politics. Often, stigma is
inter-twined at cognitive-emotional-behavioral level with a socio-cultural-economic-political milieu and hence distinct from
prejudice, discrimination or, stereotypy. Stigma against diseases as a concept has evolved and has differed among various illnesses.
At this time of humanitarian crisis, it is prudent to understand the concept, elements and models of stigma to tackle stigma against
COVID-19 instrumentally. Stigma against COVID-19 can be partially extrapolated from various models described in psychiatry for
mental illness. We propose an integrated socio-cognitive-emotional-behavioral model of stigma to conceptualize and understand the
stigma against COVID-19, a matter of immense public health significance.
