Agreed. But people do hang themselves.

One of my good friends little brother hung himself from the giant oak tree in their front yard so his parents would see him when they got home not too long ago.

Man, Americans are really bad at killing themselves.

48,344 Americans died by suicide out of 1.4 million attempts.
I know it's not the point, but those numbers are crazy. Suicide has less than a 4% success rate!

I’m not trying to sound cavalier, but I think that

rate is so low because the percentage of suicide attempts that have death as an end goal is much lower than 100%.
I don’t know enough to spout off any stats, but I do know that many are simply a cry for help more than a try at ending it all.

Clemson doctor...who pointed out that the surge seemed to be in young people and that those same young peoplein Clemsonm may not show up in the DHEC reports vs this zip code since they use permanent resident addresses, not school addresses for reporting. good times await after that march
also, my kid got sent home from daycare with a fever today. excellent. lovely.

My 2yo had a random fever two days ago

Was pretty high, 103. He slept all day, and yesterday he bounced back. Perfectly fine now. No cough or anything. Going to chalk that up to a random virus. That's what the pediatrician said anyway, and that sounds fine to me.

especially if it spikes tonight. I want to have a game plan going into the weekend. I'd rather be able to get her or someone on the phone if we need to.
