Two months after the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic, Colombia has reported over 10,000 confirmed cases of the disease and 400 deaths. On March 25, 2020, a stayat-home (SAH) order was issued country-wide to prevent the spread of the virus. After that, media channels reported the suicide of a middle-aged man in Santa Marta, a city located on the Caribbean coast. At least three times, authorities had scold him for violating the SAH order, and he claimed at court that, for working as a street vendor, he would not be able to feed his family if forced to stay at home. According to the media, his arrest might play a role in his suicide 1 . However, this is not an isolated case. Similar events have been reported worldwide: Bangladesh 2 and India 3 have likewise reported cases of suicide related to COVID-19 in which xenophobia, stigma, and fear of contagion may have contributed
