Description

For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELTZ5_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported an assistant clinical officer gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Tanzania.

DELTZ5_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELTZ5_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELTZ5_02, DELTZ5_03, DELTZ5_04, DELTZ5_05, and DELTZ5_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELTZ5_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
