Notes

Men's age in years. In the DHS VII recode HB1 is computed as the CMC date of the biomarker questionnaire interview (HV807C) minus the CMC date of the birth of the man (HB32) divided by 12, and then take the integer to get completed years. In previous recode versions HA1 was based on the CMC the date of the household questionnaire interview (HV008) and the date of birth of the man (HA32).
