Description

Definition
ATRW8 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a private dispensary as a place to be tested for the AIDS virus. This response category is country-specific to Rwanda.

Some samples in the "AT" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

ATRW8 is combined with ATRW9 (private pharmacy) in ATPRIVDRUG (all private, formal drug sources) for the 2010 and 2014 Rwanda samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ATRW8 are encouraged to review ATPRIVDRUG for a more comprehensive response category.
