Hello,

I have a question about the weights for women interviewed on birth history in the Pakistan 2017-18 DHS. It appears that about 18% of the women interviewed for the birth history have a sample weight of 0. I am not able to find information in the survey documentation about why some women would have a sample weight of 0. Any insight you can provide on this is much appreciated.

Regards.
