L'International COVID-19 Suicide Prevention Research Collaboration est un groupe de chercheurs internationaux qui compilent les données sur conduites suicidaires et Covid-19.

“Based on the available data on suicide trends during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic (March-July 2020), there does not appear to be significant increases in high income countries during this period. There are some suggestions that the picture may be different in low- and middle- income countries but it is not possible to be definitive about this due to the paucity of data from these countries.
The relatively reassuring picture in high income countries should be interpreted with caution because patterns may change over time. We know that many of the risk factors for suicide are being heightened by the pandemic, and some of these are yet to fully play out. People working in frontline services and for crisis lines report increased levels of distress.
The economic consequences of the pandemic are of particular concern, and steps need to be taken to ensure appropriate safety nets are in place for people facing financial hardship because of the risk this poses for suicide. We also know that levels of community distress remain high compared to pre-pandemic levels, and that appropriate services must be made available for people facing mental health crises.” Prof Ella Arensman on behalf of ICSPRC
