This 217-page report summarizes the analysis of the 1998 South Africa Demographic and Health Survey (SADHS). SADHS data confirm and quantify the large inequities that exist between the Eastern Cape Province and other South African provinces, as well as the inequities between populations in the Eastern Cape Province. The 1998 SADHS data are augmented here by data on government health facilities that serve the population of the Eastern Cape. This report details key findings in child mortality, fertility and family planning, maternal and child health, AIDS knowledge and behavior, adolescent health, adult health, and impact of facility quality.
