Description

Definition
For female household members, HWFHIVWEIGHT (HA69) is an 8-digit variable with 6 implied decimal places, which should be used as a weighting factor for the subset of women who were eligible for HIV testing.

Note: The 6 implied decimal places in HWFHIVWEIGHT mean that the last six digits of the eight-digit variable are decimal digits, but there is no actual decimal in the data.
