Definition
ATNG2 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a private pharmacy as a place to be tested for the AIDS virus. This response category is country-specific to Nigeria.
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.
ATNG2 is combined with ATNG1 (private chemist/patent medicine store (PMS)) in ATPRIVDRUG (all private, formal drug sources) for the 2008 Nigeria sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ATNG2 are encouraged to review ATPRIVDRUG for a more comprehensive response category.
