If I am trying to scale counts reported by facilities in the SPA survey up to national levels (e.g. number of patients diagnosed with KAPOSI'S SARCOMA in the last month (KEN 2010 SPA)), how do I interpret the facility weights? I see people are dividing the weights by 1,000,000... is it really that simple? Thanks!
