Those are some enlightening comparisons. It would be interesting to see those numbers parsed according to 'private' vs 'public' health care systems.

How many countries don't have a public healthcare system? I've heard that the US is the only first world country without one. What about the rest of the world?

Lots of other interesting data on that WHO site. If you look at this table:

One might conclude that the better your national football team, the better your health care efficiency when compared to the USA.
