	There are 53 series that come from the WHO Statistical Information System (WHOSIS). Most have not been updated since 2007, some are even older. 20 of these series are being read into the preprocessor.		The World Health Organization (WHO)'s Statistical Interactive Database (WHOSIS) is now called the Global Health Observatory (GHO). There are 53 series that come from the WHO Statistical Information System (WHOSIS). Most have not been updated since 2007, some are even older. 20 of these series are being read into the preprocessor.

	The WHO Statistical Information System (WHOSIS) was an interactive database bringing together core health statistics, but has now been absorbed into the Global Health Obserbatory (GHO). The GHO provides over 1000 health indicators for the 194 WHO member states and can be accessed online: [http://apps.who.int/gho/data/node.home http://apps.who.int/gho/data/node.home]		The WHO Statistical Information System (WHOSIS) was an interactive database bringing together core health statistics, but has now been absorbed into the Global Health Obserbatory (GHO).

	5. If the data being pulled is anything other than the child or neonatal mortality % (e.g., HealthMortChilMalaria%, HealthMortNeoNatCongen%), save the file and import into IFs. Further directions on data importing can be found here: [http://pardee.du.edu/wiki/index.php?title=Importing_data_(general_instructions) http://pardee.du.edu/wiki/index.php?title=Importing_data_%28general_instructions%29].

The country concordance that should be used is WHO 2012. If the data being pulled is child or neonatal mortality %, continue on to step 6.

	6. The data for child and neonatal mortality includes both in the same column of the spreadsheet, so it needs to be separated into two distinct columns to be imported into IFs. First, create a new sheet in the excel file. Then, make sure the years in the "data-text" are in order (sort A to Z). Sort the countries next (A to Z). This will make sure that the years and countries will line up when you move both the neonatal mortality and the under 5 mortality. Next, select the "Age Group" column and select only 0-27 days. Move the columns for year, country, age, and distribution of death (numeric) to the new sheet.		6.
