Mass Hysteria

            The world of mass hysteria is a creation known to men and women. Mass hysteria is a topic most people do not realize unless it’s involved with social media or a crisis. Mass hysteria is a tragedy that has struck the nation, and we are now realizing how devastating this message is to our people. Social media is to blame for the access of releasing information, and it has also caused a huge mental crisis within communities. When it comes to sickness, we all have different conditions and variations documentations and an important message to release to the press if when affected with some sort of health crisis news. Health hazards causing mass hysteria raising fear in many cities start to become fictionalized throughout the years and eventually will have an event that will make fake news popular in the long run. Based on the information about different stories the radio has taken a choice to voice out to the public and release false information to gather the public to confess their personal fears and thoughts about any topic spoken on the radio. Almost every accusation said on the radio would be made to put fear into the hearts of man and woman. The voice of the radio is so powerful that it can cause psychological trauma to the brain and with just a twist to a story. The radio is powerful in a sense that it can create mass hysteria within a community starting slowly and spreading out through a city sort of like a virus. Regarding viruses we all have just witnessed a diabolical outbreak of corona. One of the deadliest viruses we have seen within a decade. Almost hundreds and thousands of people have died and were suffering because of fear and mass hysteria. The corona virus not only stuck our countries, but the world suffered for a moment of time. The virus was all over the world and everyone was under scrutiny for the blame for spreading it. Just coughing once would cause a chaotic reaction and would change the scenery. The way people were living was affected, massive global hysteria, the way people started to eat had changed, being outside for too long would cause you to get sick, the work schedule changed for people, it just caused enough doubt for people, and they wanted to know if they were going to survive the crisis, mass hysteria. Pandemics, fear, and sickness struck the nation and mass hysteria just worsened the process when it was added to the mix. People were showing signs of desperation and even our president was forced to create a bill to help the families who were losing people because of the virus. Mass hysteria was a huge issue during the late 70’s as news started to appear and radio stations even talked about alien invasions and people abducted by aliens. Mass Hysteria is fake news but eventually could be real only with real evidence. Mass hysteria is powerful as it grows and continues to spread all over the world.
