Deaths by choice

Suicide rate is a statistical measure of how many people in a population die by suicide within a given period, typically expressed as deaths per 100,000 people per year.

Public health researchers track suicide rates to identify at-risk groups and evaluate prevention efforts: The suicide rate among veterans exceeds that of the general population.
