"Background and epidemiology: Mass sociogenic illness refers to the
"rapid spread of illness signs and symptoms affecting members of a
cohesive group, originating from a nervous system disturbance
involving excitation, loss or alteration of function, whereby physical
complaints that are exhibited unconsciously have no corresponding
organic aetiology."1"
