Suicide remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, according to WHO’s latest estimates, published June 17, 2021, in “Suicide worldwide in 2019”. Every year, more people die as a result of suicide than HIV, malaria or breast cancer—or war and homicide. In 2019, more than 700,000 people died by suicide: one in every 100 deaths, prompting WHO to produce new guidance to help countries improve suicide prevention and care.
