Re: Fwd: News Story - CDC: Suicides among middle-aged spikes - New

[Guest guest]

I think it would be good to check the years after big events, too. I

don't know the statistics on that, but I know I for one do well during

a crisis, it's the time after that I fall apart.

Anyone also ever think about how society made " crazy " changes after

the polio shot was introduced? I mean, each generation always has its

own issues. But I don't recall such a profound shift in societal

behaviors in a 20 yr span as from the 50's to 70's. Granted, some of

it was very good, civil liberties being at the top of the list. But

the baby boomers were the first group to be immunized as children, and

they definitely are different than prior generations. My conspiracy

theorist side can't help but wonder if the intro of vaccine altered

our neurological function.
