I don't know what you're showing me here. This is a table ranking all causes of avoidable death, which includes things like gunshot wounds.

Enough sealioning. There are two charts. One is avoidable deaths. The other is treatable deaths. It doesn't matter which definition you use, USA is near the bottom of the table.
If you'd like to disengage, simply disengage. Incivility hurts your argument. Obviously, the US leads on avoidable deaths! We have huge numbers of car accidents, homicides, and drug overdoses. We also have huge amounts of CVD, but as I explained above, that's a regional phenomenon and the health care systems are the same in both kinds of regions.

You keep coming back with data that begs the question.

It doesn't. You just don't understand the terminology.
You know you can just look this up, right?
