dc.description.abstract | Controlling for the Egyptian household choice of health infrastructure (i.e., sanitation facility and water
accessibility) is done by means of a discrete choice approach consistent with the random utility model.
Evidence of the importance of the indirect effect of the source of drinking water on child mortality is
found. Furthermore, changes in wealth and education levels are assessed taking into consideration a
priori the choice of health infrastructure. The analysis suggests that wealth and education contribute to
the child mortality reduction. | swe |
