Description

Definition
For households that have mosquito nets for sleeping but do not use them throughout the year, MLNYNOTALLYEAR indicates the main reason the household does not use the mosquito nets all year.

Because the information in MLNYNOTALLYEAR is taken from the household record, it applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
