'An epidemic of mental health challenges': Surgeon General Vivek Murthy says the COVID pandemic has triggered 'alarming' spike in child suicides
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] A herd, self-culling.
  • 'I'm so concerned about our children because there is an epidemic, if you will, of mental health challenges,' Dr Vivek Murthy said Last week, Murthy's office issued a mental health advisory after unveiling alarming figures that one in five young people report experiencing depression

  • 'We know that their lives have been turned upside down,' Murthy said

  • Just below 790 children aged 0-18 have lost their lives to COVID since the beginning of the pandemic, according to the CDC

  • But almost 70 per cent of parents who have a child for whom they sought out mental health treatment in the past 12 months have used tele-health therapy

  • National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is available 24/7 at 1-800-273-8255

#9 tele-health therapy

Showing they don't understand the problem...or worse.

Made this distinction the other day and got a 'you are right' from wife - if 10% of the working population had died, this is the virus' fault - otherwise it is a social policy decision and will last as long as it is allowed to.

#10 Three autistic grandkids. They not only made no socially adaptive progress since COVID restrictions, they lost about a year of previous gains. They already have a hard time reading social cues, then they mask half the faces.

It bares repeating. This is all on the lockdowns, the governors and officials who imposed them and Doctor Fauchi.

#13 Fauci is simply out of control now. That lunatic just said he thinks we need to don the mask [ ie bow our heads / take the knee / part our ass-cheeks ] FOREVER.

This dwarf is insane.
No one voted for him.

Dwarf Delenda Est.
