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

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. The ol’ “Cuba is a health care paradise” myth springs its ugly head yet again.

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

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