Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

We normally advise people to use d005 when analyzing DV and hiv05 when analyzing HIV. I don't recall someone looking at the subpopulation of BOTH DV and HIV. I would expect that nonresponse is higher for HIV than for DV, and therefore hiv05 would be preferable to d005. However, you could look at the final report and see whether that's correct.

Your choice of d005 or hiv05 should have a negligible impact on the results, but you could try to check that by comparing some key estimates using d005 or hiv05.
