Description
DELINJTHIGH_ALL indicates whether the respondent received an injection in the thigh or buttock immediately after she delivered her child.
DELINJTHIGH_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELINJTHIGH_01) up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELINJTHIGH_02, DELINJTHIGH_03, DELINJTHIGH_04, DELINJTHIGH_05, and DELINJTHIGH_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELINJTHIGH_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
