Questions and instructions

Question pretext

The Household Questionnaire is to be administered to the "Household Informant", identified in Q0501.
Malaria Prevention: Use of (bed) nets

Literal question

How many of the pregnant women in this household slept under a mosquito bed-net last night?

Interviewer instructions

The purpose of this question is to assess how many pregnant women, a group of persons highly vulnerable to malaria, are being correctly covered by prevention interventions. An answer of “yes” is appropriate only if the women slept under the bed net the night before the interview, and not if she says she usually sleeps under one but for some reason did not the previous night.
