So, did some looking around, and found the actual term for what my story is about: mass psychogenic illness, also called mass sociogenic illness. I was unaware that it had a term, but I'm glad it does. However, I plan to re-evaluate the symptoms used in the story a bit to make things line up a little more with reality.
