The present discussion is to bring the focus on various social issues that emerge during outbreak and calls for equal attention as that of other health-care interventions. These issues are summarized in three categories: first, stigmatization due to lack of knowledge about the source of infection; second, speculations and their consequences around lack of knowledge about transmission; and finally, the concern regarding miscommunication during such a crisis. Most of these concerns emerge from press and social media coverage of the episode. The Ebola outbreak response is an example of how social scientists and anthropologists can work with other experts to solve questions of public health importance. Their approach toward the community with the objective to understand the sources, reasons, and circumstances of the infection will help to manage the current outbreak. In this context, we suggest collaboration of diverse scientific community to control and sensitize the people to tackle the misinformation in the affected and non-affected community during the outbreaks.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/dmp.2020.203","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,24]],"date-time":"2020-06-24T08:37:37Z","timestamp":1592987857000},"page":"759-761","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Emergence of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Outbreak: Anthropological and Social Science Perspectives"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6042-0718","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Harshal B","family":"Sonekar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Manickam","family":"Ponnaiah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1935789320002037_ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.meatsci.2010.04.026"},{"key":"S1935789320002037_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12916-019-1271-3"},{"key":"S1935789320002037_ref17","unstructured":"17.
