The same number of people could die from ‘deaths of despair’

As is typical, those are charge are only concerned about their power and imposing it on everyone else. They act without considering the consequences of their actions. Now we are are seeing the fallout.

It looks very likely that when it is all said and done, they will have killed more than they have saved.

‘More Americans could lose their lives to deaths of despair, deaths due to drug, alcohol, and suicide, if we do not do something immediately’

In addition to more than 75,000 deaths in the U.S. from COVID-19, the growing epidemic of “deaths of despair” in the U.S. is also increasing due to the pandemic — and another 75,000 more people will likely die from drug or alcohol misuse and suicide, according to new research released by Well Being Trust and the Robert Graham Center for Policy Studies in Family Medicine and Primary Care.

As of Saturday, 8.7 million people had been tested in the U.S. for SARS-CoV-2. There were 1,283,929 confirmed cases in the U.S., and 78,746 deaths, of which nearly 26,563 were in New York state, the epicenter of the pandemic in the U.S., and 57,180 recovered. Worldwide, there were 4,020,878 confirmed cases and 279,007 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University.

Projections of additional “deaths of despair” range from 27,644, assuming a quick economic recovery and the smallest impact from unemployment, to 154,037, assuming a slow recovery and the greatest impact from unemployment. “We can prevent these deaths by taking meaningful and comprehensive action as a nation,” the researchers wrote in the “deaths of despair” report published Friday.

“More Americans could lose their lives to deaths of despair, deaths due to drug, alcohol, and suicide, if we do not do something immediately,” the report said. “Deaths of despair have been on the rise for the last decade, and in the context of COVID-19, deaths of despair should be seen as the epidemic within the pandemic.”

 

cons are all about eugenics, so they should be ok with this.

Im not understanding where your coming from. What are you upset about and what do you want to change?
