Penelitian ini menggunakan studi deskriptif kualitatif dengan metode observasi dan wawancara mendalam terhadap tenaga kesehatan dengan kasus positif Covid-19 yang berjumlah 8 orang dan 2 orang responden tidak terkonfirmasi positif. Penelitian ini dilakukan dari tanggal 1 Maret-6 Maret 2021. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tenaga kesehatan yang terkena Covid-19 cenderung mendapatkan stigma negatif dari masyarakat di sekitarnya. Stigma negatif menyebabkan tingkat gangguan psikologis seperti gangguan kecemasan dan tingkat stres  pada tenaga kesehatan menjadi sangat tinggi. Bukan hanya tenaga kesehatan saja yang mendapatkan stigma negatif, namun keluarga yang tidak terpapar Covid-19 juga mendapatkan stigma negatif.
