First off, you could list similar statistics for water related deaths (drowning, etc.) Does that mean that less people would die if there was no water? More relevently, this would be more informative if you included lives saved because of doctors. As it is, you are looking only at one side of the equation and ignoring the entire purpose of the profession.
You might also include the numbers of people who die or experience severe impairment because they were being treated by holistic methods or otherwise didn't see a doctor. I'm not saying this means holistic healers are bad - just that the way you are asking the question implies an expected response.
