    I think you misunderstand what they meant with “I don’t care about”. It sounds like they just meant that it’s not line why they’re quoting this graph, they got it for the stats on child-deaths-per-1k people.

      But they also state they do not understand the black line, which I would argue understanding it is the entire point of the graph.

      Yeah, fewer infants are dying but access to the improvements is not equal. That’s a pretty important point to reflect on.

      (Obviously without any ability to determine the causation of the problem… Just that one exists and should be investigated)

        Yeah but not if you were just googling for a graph that shows the development of infant mortality in the past 100 years, this came up, and you need it for those curves.
