Hi, I am trying to calculate the self-reported prevalence of TB using the SH30 variable. I have set up the survey design using the following code.

egen cluster_ID=group(hv024 hv001)
gen wgt = hv005/1000000
svyset cluster_ID [pweight=wgt], strata(hv023)
eststo: svy: regress sh30 ibn.hv024 , nocons
to generate weighted estimates.
However, the numbers I am getting are almost 10x multiples of the ones I expect to see. This has also been estimated in https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23185241/, and the estimates are closer to what I expect to see. Any idea what I am doing wrong?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
