Abstract

Prior literature identifies the negative implications surrounding isolation, stress, shootings and grief. However, limited data exists on what happens when shootings take place in the midst of a pandemic. The current study explores written diary responses from immediately before and after the Nova Scotian mass shooting in April 2020.
