Scott Alexander directs readers to his essay on Works in Progress examining why suicide rates didn't increase during the COVID-19 pandemic as expected.
Longer summary
Scott Alexander refers readers to his essay published on Works in Progress, which discusses the unexpected trend of suicides during the COVID-19 pandemic. The essay, titled 'Why didn't suicides rise during Covid?', likely explores the counterintuitive finding that suicide rates did not increase as many had predicted during the global health crisis. While the post itself doesn't provide details, it suggests an in-depth analysis of suicide statistics, mental health trends, and potential explanations for this phenomenon during the pandemic.
