This change was necessitated by the need to ensure continued data collection during the COVID-19 pandemic. This change requires additional data confrontation and analysis to be done before the GHS data can be published.<\/p>\n<p>Statistics South Africa (Stats SA) is committed to ensuring that the data it publishes is of high quality and fit-for-use.
