My biggest challenge is to ensure that affected people are treated with compassion, and not stigmatized. - Health Minister @drharshvardhan

Let us take special care in ensuring that we empathize with and provide support to people and families infected with #COVID19.

We need to reach out to those people who are afraid to come forward & seek #COVID19 treatment because of the stigma we have attached. Delayed treatment due to the stigma & fear is costing us precious lives.

How to defeat #Stigma in the #FightAgainstCoronavirus?

1. They are people, not victims/cases

2. Don't disclose info about affected people

3. Rely on authentic sources (@MoHFW_INDIA /@WHO etc)

4. Share positive stories

5. Respect #CoronaWarriors

I must be an anomaly! I have never come across an "attention seeking" patient, only "care seeking", "comfort seeking" and "reassurance seeking" ones. #Stigma
But these patients must surely exist! Clinic letters and hand written notes talk about them & colleagues mention them. Have I not been looking in the right places for them? #attentionseeking #Stigma
Or do "normal" patients attract the "attention seeking" LABEL when they are more unwell, more distressed and in more pain? I wonder about this! #stigma
