Hi,
I had looked up and downloaded data on "Treatment of Diarrhea: Taken to a Health Facility: Three years preceding the survey" indicator for all countries available in June 2020. However, when I downloaded the same data this week, I found that individual values for some countries have changed even though the source (for example, Bangladesh's DHS 2014) remained the same. As a point of reference, Bangladesh and India's values were 38.7 and 69.3 respectively in the older dataset I downloaded whereas the newer datasets had 77.3 and 78.0 respectively now. I just wanted to verify whether there has been any change in how this indicator is being computed or is it just a mistake from my end (I am fairly confident I looked up and downloaded the data earlier exactly the way I am doing now). Any help will be much appreciated.
Regards,
Sameen
