A subset of data from the World Health Organization Global Tuberculosis
Report, and accompanying global populations. who uses the original
codes from the World Health Organization. The column names for columns
5 through 60 are made by combining new_ with:
the method of diagnosis (rel = relapse, sn = negative pulmonary
smear, sp = positive pulmonary smear, ep = extrapulmonary),
gender (f = female, m = male), and
age group (014 = 0-14 yrs of age, 1524 = 15-24, 2534 = 25-34,
3544 = 35-44 years of age, 4554 = 45-54, 5564 = 55-64,
65 = 65 years or older).
who2 is a lightly modified version that makes teaching the basics
easier by tweaking the variables to be slightly more consistent and
dropping iso2 and iso3. newrel is replaced by new_rel, and a
_ is added after the gender.
