I have been looking at working on analysis of malaria in Benin. I sub-setted the personal record for children under the age of 5 and then looked at malaria microscopy testing and rapid diagnostic testing results. The problem is that 12814 were marked as NA, while only 4588 were marked either as Negative, Positive, Missing in Lab, or Refused. I was wondering why so many were marked as NA?
I checked a final report but didn't find anything on the children under 5 being sub-sampled. If anyone would help me with this problem that would be great,
Corey
