The US suicide rate declined from 2018 to end of 2019. And 2019 to end of 2020 IT ALSO DECLINED. Amid all the horror of lockdown and wearing masks, suicides declined.

Suicides declined in the US in 2020.
Japan . . . is getting smacked very hard right now by the highest Covid deaths they have seen since March 2020. Loosened restrictions are costing a lot of lives there.
