Declarations
:
: High international ethical standards are ensured for MEASURE DHS surveys as ethical approval from the country is obtained from a national ethical review board and local authorities before implementing the survey and well-informed verbal consent is sought from the respondents prior to data collection [CitationRef removed, CitationRef removed]. For the 2018 ZDHS, ethical approval was obtained from the Inner City Fund (ICF) and the Zambia Tropical Diseases Research Centre (TDRC), institutional review boards (IRBs) [CitationRef removed]. All methods of data collection were performed in accordance with the relevant guidelines and regulations. This data set was obtained from the MEASURE DHS website (URL: ExternalRef removed) after getting their permission and no formal ethical clearance was obtained since we conducted secondary analysis of publicly available data.
