Well yes but it shows how bad suicide is in Japan. If you compare it to covid it shows how bad depression is in Japan not how unimportant covid is.

- QuadmasterXLII 6y agoIt is not a valid way to “show” how bad suicide is. Otherwise you could make the same comparison in New Zealand and the US and “show” that suicide is an orders of magnitude smaller problem in the US and an orders of magnitude greater problem in New Zealand.
- xupybd 6y agoHow is that not a valid comparison. That is exactly the sort of thing people use over here to show our terrible youth suicide rate. NZ is not far behind Japan it's a problem worth talking about.
