According to UNICEF statistics, infant-mortality rates for South African blacks were much lower and life-expectancy rates much higher, during the Apartheid regime than afterwards.

We have yet to run across: “True, South African blacks could not vote and many were jailed for political offenses— but by golly that segregationist regime sure achieved great gains in healthcare! And they somehow maintained those health achievements—the absolute best on the entire African continent!—while suffering a cruel embargo imposed upon them by most of the world!”
