Again - do I believe suicides as a result of this are going to be 1 for 1 with fatalities as a result of the disease? No, of course not. But I think they'll happen. And they'll happen in significant enough numbers that they need to be included in the decision-making process.

How would not practicing social distance help the ppl who are killing themselves mental health? You really think more ppl getting the virus and dying is going to make them feel better?
Unlike you some people value lives over money
