Yes it's been weird. Maybe it the stress of Christmas/New Year as a contributory factor. This tends to be a time when mental health problems reach crisis point and as a result it puts more strain on people emotionally and physically (due to stress hormones like cortisol). People also tend to turn to drugs like alchohol more at this time of year which doesn't help.

Let's hope that's the last of the deaths, its bad enough on the families but worse around a time when you should be celebrating
Yes and I feel for the families - imagine having to arrange a funeral when everyone else is celebrating - plus a lot of businesses are shut off till the New Year. You could end up paying a lot more to make arrangements due to that.
