Replication of Prior Analyses

The code to perform replication of previous estimates:

“Replication_prior_GWU.do” This .do file uses the following data files:

"working mortality file aim1_CPI.dta" (created in step 2 in the time-series code, but made available separately here)

A series of data files provided by the authors of the New England Journal of Medicine household survey (Kishore et al.) here (https:/ /github.com/c2-d2/pr_mort_official)

For the purposes of this analysis we converted a number of these files to stata format and reproduce them here. These are:

"weights.dta"
"deaths.dta"
"households.dta"
"individuals.dta"
"hh_stripped.dta"
