Demographers ability to model the global population ("10 billion by 2050 followed by plateau") rely on DHS surveys. Without them we're blind to large parts of the globe and quality of forecasts will go down. Which is of course a non-issue if planing-horizons don't extend beyond next Friday.

War on Science update: DHS does surveys around the world. It's a key part of how we understand the world. Web of Science has 3501 items that mention DHS in the metadata; currently averaging about 350 per year. The last contract to run it was about $57 million per year. dhsprogram.com/Who-We-Are/N...
