I looked him up and he's young and unaccomplished. lol what kind of narcissistic weirdo writes an article naming some shit after himself.
And what grand phenomena required the invention of a new word? LOL THE "FOEGEN EFFECT" JUST MEANS WHEN YOU WEAR A MASK YOU BREATHE THE VIRUS BACK IN. LOLOLOL

Many people believe that common-sense observations require "scientific studies" to make them real.
This was unfortunately apparent in all the 'Mass Formation Psychosis' talk. There is no need to give a sciencey sounding name to mob mentality/mass hysteria. Scientismos and dumbos are under the impression that it lends your claims more credence, but it just gifts science-ideologues across the aisle a chance to disingenuously state 'it's never been called this before, therefore akshully mass hysteria don't real'.

He's less culturally-relevant on account of being long dead.
Using his name to market your foundation doesn't have the effectiveness it once did.
It's not a medical condition being named per se. It's the phenomenon of making the disease worse because of mask-wearing.
