Using ggplot2 to visualize relationship between life expectancy and health spending in R (CC338)

[@bassamsaleh8034]

Thank you for all those code clubs you recently hosted. They’re very informative and enjoyable to follow. However, just a side note, we’re currently unable to access any of the data used in the last three videos (specifically, the US data from the CDC and Census).

Thanks - I *think* things are fixed now? Can you access this link that was in the program description: data.cdc.gov/Vaccinations/Vaccination-Coverage-and-Exemptions-among-Kinderga/ijqb-a7ye/about_data I am working on another approach to getting everyone the data

The US having a data point below the plotting area is bad science communication, but good art direction

Another great video! I’m wondering why my dpi = 300 setting isn’t working (this happens with other videos as well). I’m using Windows, and when I set dpi = 75, I get a resolution similar to yours. However, at 300 dpi, everything appears extremely off-centered in the R open window. Any insights on this? Thanks, Matt

If you are using RStudio, I *think* it might have something to do with your graphics settings. If you go to Preferences -> General -> Graphics, you might want to play around with the setting for "Backend"

Regarding the issue with fonts not matching, I think you can adjust this in fonts_add_google. There are two arguments, regular.wt and bold.wt, that change the stroke weight for regular and bold text, respectively.

Thanks! I'll give that a try - I appreciate you watching to the end of the video 🤓
