INDICATOR DESCRIPTION
General health condition of persons - how a person perceives their health in general using one of the answer categories very good/good/fair/bad/very bad.

At the time of the survey the person perceives their health in general rather than the current state of health, as the question is not intended to measure temporary health problems. It omits any reference to an age as respondents are not specifically asked to compare their health with others of the same age or with their own previous or future health state. It is expected to include the different dimensions of health, i.e. psychical, social and emotional functioning and biomedical signs and symptoms.
