The coronavirus pandemic has led to people getting involved in harmful behaviors. In our observational study, we assessed 241 patients with suicidal thoughts or behaviors in the emergency room before, during, and after the lockdown, from January to July 2020. After the lockdown, retired patients made higher-lethality attempts, and consultations related to suicide were less frequent, but active suicidal behaviors were more frequent. Men tended to use more lethal methods, and women made more suicidal gestures and had more suicide-related consultations. We observed an increase in the lethality of the attempts after the declaration of the state of alarm.
冠状病毒大流行导致人们参与到有害行为中。在我们的观察性研究中，我们评估了 2020 年 1 月至 7 月封锁期间和封锁前后在急诊室有自杀念头或行为的 241 名患者。封锁后，退休患者的自杀尝试更具致命性，自杀相关咨询次数减少，但自杀行为更为频繁。男性倾向于使用更致命的方法，女性则更多地做出自杀姿态，并进行更多与自杀相关的咨询。我们观察到在宣布进入紧急状态后，尝试的致命性有所增加。
