Finally something believable from the CDC.
But were they wearing masks when they committed suicide...now that the important thing.
Not just suicides, but OD’s.
How many relapses, and how many new addicts?
Blocking out Fake News would help these people.
The Democrat National Party, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC does not want the American people to know this. Right now, the American people are still buying their BS.
you aren’t supposed to notice the mental health effects of 4 months of confined shutdown, isolation, and heavy media programming.
Whoever would’ve thought you’d gulag at home and subject yourself to state propaganda around the clock in the name of infotainment “for your own good”.
They are killing innovation, creativity, independent businesses, and social dating. “for your own good” while the militant Left can have their “love ins” and smash the state and smash the church.
Trump warned this would happen and was lampooned from every direction.
Some time ago, maybe April, I was catching up with a friend whose brother is a priest. I asked about his biggest worries and problems. For him it was the alcoholics who were isolated and had lost some accountability measures . Anyone with “boots on the ground” saw this coming.
So we didn’t get herd immunity but we got culling the herd instead? Good job CDC!
STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Sweden’s top epidemiologist said on Tuesday a rapid decline in new critical COVID-19 cases alongside slowing death rates indicated that Sweden’s strategy for slowing the epidemic, which has been widely questioned abroad, was working.
Sweden has foregone a hard lockdown throughout the outbreak, a strategy that set it apart from most of Europe.
Chief epidemiologist Anders Tegnell of the public health agency said a rapid slowdown in the spread of the virus indicated very strongly that Sweden had reached relatively widespread immunity.

Cause-of-Death Reporting
When reporting cause of death on a death certificate, use any
information available, such as medical history, medical records,
laboratory tests, an autopsy report, or other sources of relevant
information. Similar to many other diagnoses, a cause-of-death
statement is an informed medical opinion that should be based
on sound medical judgment drawn from clinical training and
experience, as well as knowledge of current disease states and
local trends (6).
Part I
This section on the death certificate is for reporting the sequence
of conditions that led directly to death. The immediate cause of
death, which is the disease or condition that directly preceded
death and is not necessarily the underlying cause of death
(UCOD), should be reported on line a. The conditions that led
to the immediate cause of death should be reported in a logical
sequence in terms of time and etiology below it.
The UCOD, which is “(a) the disease or injury which initiated
the train of morbid events leading directly to death or (b) the
circumstances of the accident or violence which produced the
fatal injury” (7), should be reported on the lowest line used in
Part I.
Just weeding out the weak minded... Darwin theory does work
Covid deaths. All of them.

Also doesn’t count the people who will die due to delayed routine screenings (CT scans, colonoscopies, skin cancer checks, etc.) because the Dems/Media scared people into hiding in their homes.
And our moron governor just locked Maryland down more.
This must stop. Tyrannical governors need to be arrested.
Context is important.
Below is the quote from Director Redfield that the article is based on.
It appears Director Redfield is specifically addressing the high school age population when he states suicide and overdose deaths exceed COVID deaths.
The argument supports opening schools.
“But there has been another cost that we’ve seen, particularly in high schools. We’re seeing, sadly, far greater suicides now than we are deaths from COVID. We’re seeing far greater deaths from drug overdose that are above excess that we had as background than we are seeing the deaths from COVID. So this is why I keep coming back for the overall social being of individuals, is let’s all work together and find out how we can find common ground to get these schools open in a way that people are comfortable and their safe. And if there is a need for investment and resources, just like there is a need for some of the underprivileged children that are probably better served if they have certain comorbidities to do homeschooling, they need the access to be able to have the computer and the internet to do that.”
Yep - we know some folks who had been booze/drug =free fro substantial amounts of time who are back at it...and a few of my wife’s friends are seeking counseling for depression...it finally got to the boiling point where folks are suffering from the effects of long-term scare tactics and being cut off from normal socialization - I’m fortunate in that I’m not a social animal and am comfortable being alone for extended periods....my wife needs the social interaction and is starting to show the signs of stress.
