“The numbers are unprecedented,” Dr. Michael deBoisblanc of John Muir Medical Center in Walnut Creek, California, https://abc7news.com/suicide-covid-19-coronavirus-rates-during-pandemic-death-by/6201962/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(0, 123, 255) !important; text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; touch-action: manipulation; font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif !important; font-size: 1rem !important; - DeBoisblanc said he believes it’s time for California officials to end the stay-at-home order and let people back out into their communities. "Personally, I think it's time," he said. "I think, originally, this was put in place to flatten the curve and to make sure hospitals have the resources to take care of COVID patients. We have the current resources to do that, and our other community health is suffering." Kacey Hansen, a trauma center nurse at John Muir Medical Center for more than 30 years, says she’s worried not only about the increased suicide attempts but also about the hospital’s ability to save as many patients as usual. "What I have seen recently, I have never seen before," Hansen said. "I have never seen so much intentional injury."
