Well if it’s not a crisis then why is it bad nobody is talking about it? Really if you translate the data into the headline what it would say is “an insignificant percentage of a small demographic are committing suicide, and the reaction is proportional”. There’s almost certainly more doctors dying in car accidents and nobody is talking about that either.
Again, terrorism is war. Different situation, and going to that strawman repeatedly shows you actually understand this is a silly “story”.
RE: Again, terrorism is war.
You don’t have to tell me that. People react to terrorism emotionally in a different way than other kinds of death.
Why do people for instance react to the Boston marathon bombing where less than 10 people died?
But in terms of statistical data relative to the population base, I would say this is more significant in percentage terms than those who died in 9/11.
As for this: “There’s almost certainly more doctors dying in car accidents and nobody is talking about that either.”
I’m not sure about this “more doctors” thing. Did we have a study on that showing that this is so?
As for this being a “silly” story, not sure if I can call it that. The article is simply telling us that more people in that profession are killing themselves maybe compared people in other professions. This is a very interesting factoid. It would be interesting to know WHY this is so IMHO.
