With Western Pacific Region reporting more imported cases, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared monkeypox a public health emergency of international concern in July. Currently, we are now at the beginning of forming stigmatization toward monkeypox. Based on the experience of combating HIV stigmatization for over 30 years, in this comment, we proposed measures based on the three stages of the stigma formation process. We believe the paper may be of particular interest to the readers of your journal as it offered implications for both healthcare professionals and researchers in Western Pacific Region.
