Good day!

I am doing a research about the factors determining the prevalence of Tuberculosis in the Philippines using the 2013 survey.
I just know if I am on the right track here. I am using the PR data, and i used the variable sh204d because i thought that is the count for the people with TB.

First, I used rao scott using sampling weights with the ff command:

generate wgt = hv005/1000000
tab hv005[iweight=wgt]
svyset hv021 [pweight = wgt], strata( hv023 )
svy: tab sh204d hv270 , row

and so on.

However, I noticed that there is only 71 out of 14,339 self reported TB cases. Is it still possible to conduct my study given that low count?

Thank you.
