Probable PTSD Was Prevalent Among Adults Long After Mass Violence Incidents Occurred In Their Community, Study Finds

HCPlive (7/26, Derman) reported that a “study found probable PTSD was prevalent among adults long after the mass violence incidents occurred in their community.” Researchers came to this conclusion after conducting “a cross-sectional survey study from February 2020 to September 2020 with a sample of adults from 6 communities who had most likely experienced a mass violence incidence between 2015 and 2019.” The findings were published in JAMA Network Open.
