Corona-shamed

When a person is shamed for not using proper hygiene or taking the proper precautions during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Typically this is done on social media to celebrities that are closely associated with a COVID-19 case or have had the virus and do not take proper precautions to prevent the spread. While the person can be shamed for violating quarantine guidelines to do errands for which delivery is possible, or when they do not wear a mask in public places and/or do not respect the property distances, etc. But it can also be for saying something stupid like COVID-19 is just like the flu, especially when it is peaking and 2,000 people are dying.
Just after his live broadcast from his house to describe the horror of his wife getting a positive COVID-19 test result, the celebrity was found in a local Pharmacy buying sunglasses, which he could have gotten online. This caused as ruckus in the store as he was Corona-shamed by some and fawned all over by others. His loud sneeze could be seen all over social media.

trauma shaming

When someone who has been affected mentally or psychologically by a trauma, or even a bad upbringing, is criticized for the behavior they display as a result of the trauma, with those criticizing seemingly forgetting, or not knowing the reason behind this behavior. Some may continue to criticize the person with the trauma even when explained the reason, claiming that the trauma doesn't "justify" their behavior. In the case of fictional characters, expect one to call a trauma-stricken character "annoying" for lashing out.
Commenter: "Ugh, just watching Degrassi Junior High right now and Spike is so rude towards Shane! Like why is she like that towards that poor boy?"
Another commenter: "Dude, she literally has an absent father and she got pregnant at 14. Stop trauma shaming.".
