Is wearing a mask AND not wearing a mask two forms of PTSD?

I'm thinking the best answer for this is that everyone everywhere is dealing with PTSD from coronavirus. The only difference is that more people who wear masks will survive this in the end.

But, not realizing that presently everyone on earth is dealing with Group PTSD from coronavirus just like everyone dealt with group PTSD from 9-11, the Kennedy assassinations, The Cuban Missile Crisis, World War II, World War I and the Great Depression and even the Great Recession isn't useful.

In other words the whole world is now in shock from all the deaths from this thing and it is perfectly normal for people to have the kinds of reactions (whatever they are worldwide). But, to not realize everyone is in shock worldwide is to be very very ignorant at this point.

And as economies collapse from too many people dying to sustain them worldwide we should remember this to have some sort of useful reference points in creating ways to survive all this long term.
