"Scaredemic” (scare + pandemic) became a popular term during the 2020 COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, but it had appeared earlier.

“Homespun Craft Show tomorrow, the Scaredemic will cause a low turnout I would think” was posted on Twitter by Yarg Hardison on April 30, 2009. “Reading:  Swine Flu - The Journalistic Scaredemic” was posted on Twitter by Beth Bridges - The Networking Motivator on May 5, 2009.

“If you really think about it...this corona virus scaredemic is really beneficial to America” was posted on Twitter by 80sOutcastNonconformist~SoulJourney Truth on February 26, 2020. “Scaredemic: We are all getting it, no cure ever. 100% world infected, human kind extinction” was posted on Twitter by Tony Ray(Yankees 27) on March 11, 2020. “That’s the level of insanity this #scaredemic has reached” was posted on Twitter by Kiss My Mask later on March 11, 2020.

It’s less a #scamdemic more a #scaredemic. Pandemic WOULD have killed millions if nothing was done. Not now w/ high vaccine rollout.. Fear is the best tool to give up ur rights while central bank of Canada suddenly own 40% of bond market, as ppl are distracted being germaphobes.
