The reason I responded as I did is because the first tweet in your thread indeed made the hyperboilc claim that lockdowns decrease suicides. So yeah there was a little bit of hyperbole (equating suicides to overall mental health) in response. Welcome to the Internet.

a) he didn't claim it, he described an actual association, which you should know very clearly means "correlation" b) you didn't engage in "hyperbole", you made a straight erroneous conflation
