    The numbers for sub-Saharan Africa just mean everybody is really super-duper healthy and they rarely need doctors. Yeah, that’s it.

    Cuba has 170:1 ratio - the lowest I could find on the map. They must have great health care there… No freedom, but lots of healthy people.

    I don’t know about healthier, I read a letter from a Cuban immigrant in the paper about the difficulty in getting prescription drugs.

    The ol’ “Cuba is a health care paradise” myth springs its ugly head yet again. It really deosn’t take much effort to learn the truth of the segregated condition of Cuban society. There are several castes of people, the lowest of which has no access to surgery, cancer treatment, or any other expensive course of action. Fidel, his cronies, and the rest of the plebescite have different hospitals that are denied to the common folk.

    Michael Moore is a filthy, lying propagandist. It is pitiful that some faux-intellectuals buy into his crap.

    I think the best thing to do is to support organizations such as “Doctors Without Borders” who go about helping folks who don’t have access to qualified doctors.

    A little deceptive to show the statistic across entire countries. Perhaps if it got a little more regional, you might see different results entirely.
