Really? that seems a tad counterintuitive relative to some of the narratives that have been floating around
I think @GidMK and @ASPphysician mentioned about this a while back.
Yep, I wrote about the theory back in July. It was always uncertain whether suicides would increase during COVID-19 (future years are another matter of course)https://gidmk.medium.com/is-covid-19-causing-suicides-f6c6760afdeb …
Bonus points for nice use of kittens!
Thanks! I also wrote a bit more about the actual increases in suicides in published evidence as of the end of last year (mixed evidence, but in general not much of an association with lockdowns)https://gidmk.medium.com/have-lockdowns-caused-suicides-during-covid-19-dd6b7a741f39 …
