- tinus_hn 5y agoThis was reported in the Dutch mainstream press, I think it was based on this report (in Dutch): https://www.rivm.nl/bibliotheek/rapporten/2021-0194.pdf https://www.rivm.nl/bibliotheek/rapporten/2021-0194.pdf It’s probably based on this statistic: Do you wish you were dead or that you would go to sleep and never wake up? Almost always 1.5% Most of the time 2.9% Sometimes 7.3% Incidentally 13.9% Never 74.9% (Page 32) Yes, it is shocking.
