You seem to have an entirely separate definition of what egotistical altruism means from how most other people understand the concept. In its simplest form it's just doing good unto others so they can live more productive better lives as more of their needs are met by community support.

Ok, that definition does not define how people acted during the pandemic either. Some people were even actively harming others.
