Dear Gueter,
Thank you for your message. Yes, the blood pressure and diabetes questions, as well as the larger module they are included in, the non-communicable disease module, are optional and have not been included as of yet in Github code or the guide to statistics. We hope to include them in the future.
I have been looking into the specific issue with the Haiti data, and unfortunately it appears that an error was made during file construction, and many of the diabetes and hypertension variables were not included in the Individual Men's and Women's file. By time this was recognized, the original data file had been erased. sbh263c and shb381a (glucose measurement for men and women is still available in the PR file.
Thank you for the question and apologies that we don't have a better answer.
