Deaths by suicide declined by almost 6% from 2019 to 2020, according to a report in JAMA based on statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The decline is one hopeful finding in an otherwise grim report that revealed a 17.7% increase in overall deaths in 2020, with most of those directly attributable to COVID-19.
