B
Follow-up for more than 2 decades has shown that about 25 of the Buffalo Creek survivors still have significant post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. Overall the severity of symptoms has been decreasing for most of the survivor cohort. Follow-up of child Buffalo Creek survivors has found a steady decrease in symptomatology with PTSD diagnosed in 7 of persons up to 17 years after the original event.
