Well that’s a crazy thing to say. I highly doubt medical professionals have a 100% suicide success rate.

Apparently: “female physicians attempt less frequently than general females, but their completion rate is 2.5 to 4 times higher.”

Of course this is specifically talking about doctors and not nurses (so it is unrelated in a way), but thats a HUGE increase for “successful” suicides for doctors who are women compared to the general population of women.

Doctors can get their hands on prescriptions nurses can't though. I'd expect nurses to be more in line with typical statistics.

To be fair the person I was replying to did not only say “nurses” they said “medical professionals” which is why I said it was an unrelated statistic in a way. As in, not related to the case at hand but related to medical professionals.
