Thank you so much again for inviting me to speak.
There are two things I want to be specific on. One is that it's really important to review suicide systematically to see what specific issues are occurring and what the intervention points are. There are general suicide intervention strategies, but during the transition period there really needs to be a systematic look taken at suicide attempts and suicide deaths over 100 or 200 consecutive cases to say, okay, how can we reduce these? That kind of work would be helpful.
The second piece is media contagion. The media can increase the risk of contagion of suicide through media reports about suicide. We have been working with the military as well as journalists to really remind people about safe reporting around suicide. I can send you some of the literature on that as well.
Thank you.
