As far as infant mortality and life expectancy, the picture is a lot more complicated than you portray. The US is including in their life expectancy data cases of stillbirths or nonviable fetuses at birth, which are not recorded in EU numbers, for example. " measurement problems arise in international comparisons because the data are not consistently gathered or reported. Although the World Health Organization (WHO) has a formal definition of what should be included in the infant mortality statistics, anecdotal evidence suggests that countries do not use consistent practices in measuring these data (Haub and Yanagishita, 1991; Hartford, 1992).
