Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELET6_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a health officer gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Ethiopia.

DELET6_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELET6_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELET6_02, DELET6_03, DELET6_04, DELET6_05, and DELET6_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELET6_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
