Note that the misconceptions are survey specific. In the example given, the code assumes that the two most common misconceptions are: the AIDS virus can be transmitted by mosquito bites and a person can become infected by sharing food with a person who has AIDS. However, the misconceptions must be verified for each survey, and the two most common are used. See the
Guide to DHS Statistics and search for "misconception" to find "Comprehensive Knowledge about HIV (Total and Youth)" for more information on this indicator. Note that some survey specific misconceptions are included in a few surveys too.
