First citation in article Link, Google ScholarĪustin, A., Winskog, C., van den Heuvel, C., & Byard, R. Newspaper reporting of suicide cases in Hong Kong. Conclusion: The public health approach of engaging multiple partners in the early phase of a potential epidemic can be a good guide to meeting the challenges posed by any new suicide methods that emerge in the future.Īu, J., Yip, P. The impacts of the interventions are only estimated and require additional empirical verifications. Limitations: The count of helium suicides in 2015 might be low. The preliminary outcomes suggest our actions to be effective. This novel suicide method has not spread as rapidly as the CB suicide method. Intervention strategies were developed to strengthen protective factors and minimize risk factors. Risk and protective factors were identified. Results: A monitoring system was established by compiling data extracted from news reports, coroners' reports, and police investigations. Method: We adopted a public health approach by engaging stakeholders from multiple sectors, including the police force, the fire services department, coroners, pathologists, mass media, and online media outlets. Aims: To document what actions have been taken to contain the spread of the helium suicide method and review the preliminary impact of these actions. We have learned a valuable lesson in curbing the spread of charcoal burning (CB) suicide in the past 15 years and hope to prevent the helium suicide method from taking off in the community. Background: The use of the helium suicide method has been increasing in popularity in Hong Kong since 2012.
