Teen suicides plummeted in March '20, when schools shut due to COVID. Returning from online to in-person schooling was associated with a 12-18% increase in teen suicides
🕑 Added 2025-09-08 17:00:04 +0000 UTCA really fascinating study about how the rate of teen suicides increased/decreased during COVID 19 closures and re-openings. Now that we're five years away from lockdown (INSANE), I'm so interested to see what kind of study findings like these we get!

Returning to school is killing the kids but giving the pretty girls better grades. A true Sophie's choice.

That does not say good things about the respective school system. I assume these are US numbers. Any idea what happened in other places?
