Interviewer instructions

The purpose of these questions is to make sure that the interviewer gets the information about the youngest child in the household, whether related to the respondent or not, and determines the date of birth (month and year)and sex of the child. The interviewer should refer to this name for all questions in this section (Q6504-Q6565, and in malaria endemic areas Q6566-Q6570).

If child aged over 5 years (born December 1997 or earlier): Go to Q6600
