Suicide was the third-leading cause of death in the 10-24 age group, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ran a study in 2004 and the results just now are being reported. It is the biggest rise in suicides in 15 years.
Director of CDC's National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, told reporters, "We don't yet know if this is a short-lived increase or if it's the beginning of a trend."
You know, I wish results like this were reported in a more timely manner. If it is related to a certain drug on the market (which it very well could be) it's probably something they should look into a little quicker.
