As expected 🚨🚨
This is not a 'review' but rather a blow to research across the world.
Respective countries should maintain repositories of their data. By saying this, I am not supporting the cessation of DHS at the main site but am hoping for an alternative solution.

DHS surveys—essential to global health infrastructure—make you describe a project before you can download data.
My students are reporting nobody is responding anymore.
1. If you have DHS data downloaded, hang on to it!
