Description

Definition
For young children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRSN5 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment at a market for this illness. This response category is country-specific to Senegal.

Some samples in the "FEVTR" series include categories that can be consolidated into a single response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

FEVTRSN5 is combined with FEVTRSN4 (shop) in FEVTRSHOP (all shops/retailers) for the 2010, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017 Senegal samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRSN5 are encouraged to review FEVTRPUBHC for a more comprehensive response category.
