Interviewer instructions
<span class="h2">Chapter D. Mortality</span>
<br />This chapter aims to gather information about mortality in general as well as maternal mortality in women aged 15 and above during the period from January to December of 2011. The first part of the question acts as a ''filter'' to find out if one or more people living in the household died during calendar year 2011. If the answer is yes, ask, ''How many people?'' and note the stated number in the appropriate boxes. Then, fill in the table, writing the name of each of the deceased, their age at their final birthday (writing 0 for those under one year old), and the deceased's sex.
<br />If the deceased was a woman at least 15 years old, also ask the cause of death. If the answer is no, go to question 22, chapter E, of the census form.
