Total Deaths in Ontario: 2019-2020* 115,126 2018-2019 109,019 And the overall death rate is roughly inline with the population growth, which is about 1.7 percent and normal variation. If official number of COVID deaths is accurate. 9,400 people died of COVID in Ontario. Assuming those 9,400 deaths were all in the ICU and none at home or palliative care. There are 400 hospitals in the Province. So average of COVID deaths per hospital/per year is 9400/400 = 23.5 I can easily see how 23 more people in a community serviced by a hospital could have committed suicide due to drug abuse over losing their business, job, or livelihood or just being locked up with nothing else to do but think.
