Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELZW3_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a village health worker gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Zimbabwe.

DELZW3_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELZW3_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELZW3_02, DELZW3_03, DELZW3_04, DELZW3_05, and DELZW3_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELZW3_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
