To paraphrase HCAP, unfortunately no.

He gleefully relishes negative news. It's like he doesn't realize or give a sh!t that this is affecting real people.

35% of the fatalities were in nursing homes.
hcap is bowing to the God of Graphs and totally overlooking the reality of things as always. He uses colored lines in lieu of reasoning.

The total number has pretty much nothing to do with anything.
Other than obsessive-compulsive's.

People just don't seem to understand this...at all.
In one way they do, your fellow New Yorkers had several opportunities in previous elections. Other States are in a much better position because who they elected to manage their State. Feet don't fail you now, As a United States citizen you can change your domicile and leave New York's burdens with those who want the pain. I just do not see this President or Congress bailing out bad moves and bad policy of those who voted for politicians who enacted such bad positions. Yes this was a perfect storm to crush where you live, but those elected had a fiduciary responsibility to foresee bad scenarios right?

The numbers are unprecedented, he said.

"We've never seen numbers like this, in such a short period of time," he said. "I mean we've seen a year's worth of suicide attempts in the last four weeks."

Kacey Hansen has worked as a trauma nurse at John Muir Medical Center in Walnut Creek for almost 33 years. She is worried because not only are they seeing more suicide attempts, she says they are not able to save as many patients as usual.

In 2019...48,344 Americans died by suicide. •
White males accounted for 7 of 10 suicides in 2016.
A firearm is used in almost 50% of all suicides.

So there is good evidence many gun lovers who are white males
shoot and kill themselves!

However, there is absolutely NO evidence.....

The "experts" have been wrong about everything else, but hey lets believe that. It could happen.

The crackpots who deny the severity of the pandemic, have a much worse track record.

Since the Trump era, his minions have celebrated anti-science and the death of expertise.

The crackpots who believe shutting down the world is less harmful then the virus itself are nothing but sheep.

Crazy sheep at that.

I nominate yourself, your dad Tom, and a few other con lackies on here to be grief counselors
for some of the victims' families. You know......you can point out the brighter side to them.
Your assertion that they haven't died in vain, etc., etc.......

Btw, how are things going with your Boy from Brazil?
No lock downs there - just massive casualties.

A sort of genocide of the poor, perhaps?
Just like here, that's okay with the "haves".

"A spike in suicides triggered by Covid-19 lockdowns is expected to exceed deaths from the actual virus by a factor of 10 in Australia, according to researchers from Sydney University’s Brain and Mind Center, who published their findings on Thursday."

From the same article:

"The lockdowns have apparently made matters worse, according to both the current stats and projections. Suicides in Tennessee quickly surpassed deaths from the coronavirus following the imposition of lockdown orders in March"
