Dear Bridgette,

Thanks for your answer. Based on that we changed our codes to calculate ITN use by children using the PR dataset in all surveys.

However, we are still concerned about the India 2015 dataset.
Variable hml12 is all zero in the PR dataset, indicating that no one slept under a mosquito net. However, a tabulate of variable hml19 showed that 4.4% slept under an ever-treated net. The other apparent problem is that these informations are available for only 350,797 individuals (PR dataset contains 2.8 million individuals), and this is not a subsample indicator. It is not clear, and apparently there is an error in the datasets for these variables. Can you please check that?

Best,
Fernanda
