Codes
This variable is not available for any of the currently selected samples.
Description
For household members who slept under a bed net the previous night, MLNETBRAND (HML7) reports the brand of the bed net the person slept under.
For household members who slept under more than one bed net the previous night, MLNETBRAND refers to the net numbered in MLNETINDX (HMLIDX).
Comparability
In addition to universe differences and slight differences in question wording, MLNETBRAND (HML7) differs across samples in the number of response categories. Some samples include only general categories, such as "Long-lasting insecticide treated net (LLIN)," "Pretreated net," and "Untreated net." Other samples include additional responses with the specific brand of the net.
To maximize comparability, IPUMS-DHS uses composite coding with "Long-lasting insecticide treated net (LLIN)" having a first digit of "1," "Pretreated net" having a first digit of "2," and "Untreated net" having a first digit of "3." The second and third digits distinguish between specific brands when this additional information is available.
