Dear Sir/Madam

I have recoded child mortality in a binary variable in STATA using Kid file using STATA code
gen wt= v005/1000000

cap drop child_deaths
gen child_deaths = 0
replace child_deaths = 1 if inrange(b6,212,334)
ta child_deaths [iw=wt]

but the child mortality estimate is not matching with the NFHS-4, 2015-16 report for the 0-4 years.
Please help me with this code to estimate the correct /lump sump child mortality value given in NFHS-4 report.
