Description

Definition
ATPRIVDRUG (V784M) indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a private pharmacy, drug store, or dispensary as a source for testing for the AIDS virus.

Some samples in the "AT" 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.

For example, a given sample might include multiple categories for different types of private drug sources that could be combined in ATPRIVDRUG to create a more comprehensive response category. See Comparability for more information on the specific categories combined in this variable.
