I don't know about the others but I can confirm that Saudi Arabia
and the Gulf countries do have relatively low life expectancies.
I was in Jeddah, SA about 5 years ago and while I was there their
Minister for Higher Education passed away at a tender age of 55
which was about the life expectancy for males in that country at that time.
Here's the punch line:  Health is wealth but wealth does not
ensure health.
