Are you in Canada as your profile states? Perhaps things are quite different there.
There is plenty of correlation data available for unemployment vs mortality. The 40,000 is based off a study from the 70's I think. But even if that's wildly overestimated, your belief that every life should be saved is at odds with any increase.
People are going to die. They die every day. As Elizabeth Warren is dealing with the loss of her brother, we all deal with the loss of loved ones. Whether it be from a virus, old age, car accident, etc. At the average age of members here I'd bet most, if not all of us, have lost loved ones.

It's not about people die everyday so what's the big deal. It's that our carelessness can be directly responsible for a death(s) much the same if one intentionally ran their car through a crowd.
