“You’re going to lose more people by putting a country into a massive recession or depression. You’re going to lose people. You’re going to have suicides by the thousands.”-President Donald Trump, 24MAR2020, regarding a possible national lockdown

Below is an incomplete list of links to some of the many real news media reports about the suicidal impact of coronavirus 2019 lockdowns.

“Every 1% hike in the unemployment rate will likely produce a 3.3% increase in drug overdose deaths and a 0.99% increase in suicides according to data provided by the National Bureau of Economic Research and the medical journal Lancet. These are facts based on experience, not models. If unemployment hits 32%, some 77,000 Americans are likely to die from suicide and drug overdoses as a result of layoffs. Scientists call these fatalities ‘deaths of despair’.-Betsy McCaughey
