> suicide is almost twice as common in china vs the united states.

It's very hard to compare suicide rates across different countries.

That's because they don't have common definitions of what a suicide is (is it something a coronor has ruled on? Or is it something that's counted by statisticians from death certificate coding?); and because their definitions change over time.
