Description

Definition
SICKADULTNO (HV248) reports the number of sick people age 18-59 in the household.

The information in SICKADULTNO is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
