Doctors

Hypothesis
With more doctors, there should be a higher birthrate, life expectancy, and
population.
Conclusion
From the information in the graphs, we can see that the hypothesis is entirely
false. It is quite surprisingly the opposite. The lower amount of doctors, in this
case Kiribati, shows a higher birthrate, life expectancy, and population. The
highest country with doctors, in this case Nauru, has lower life expectancy,
population and birthrate. Logically this is unrealistic, since more doctors should
mean better healthcare, education, medicines, etc. But this theory for some
reason does not apply to these 3 countries.
