So 111 excess suicides, versus 64k covid deaths in California. Classic trolley problem.

Even if we did prioritize the hundred over the thousands, I see ending lockdowns, but what's your justification for ending mask policies and testing?

Not to mention that suicide has been trending up, so even if there wasn’t COVID, not all of those lives would be saved.
