Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last five years, DELTZ3_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported a Maternal and Child Health aide gave delivery care for a recent birth. This response category is country-specific to Tanzania.

DELTZ3_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELTZ3_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELTZ3_02, DELTZ3_03, DELTZ3_04, DELTZ3_05, and DELTZ3_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELTZ3_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
