abstract="The Covid-19 pandemic is suppressing suicide. Studies suggest that due to the intensity of lockdown suicides increase after a pandemic. Males, who comprise roughly 75% of completed suicides may respond to rising rates of substance use, unemployment, anxiety, isolation and trauma with deliberate killing. In this forum piece, I present a portent that COVID-19 will increase the risk of suicidal and suicidal-homicidal violence for survivors of the pandemic and while facing the current epidemic has occupied the globe, it is critical that we keep our eyes on the horizon for the coming suicide wave. © 2020, © 2020 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
