*With regard to denominator counts, answers based on straightforward questions (limiting long-term illness, stroke, diabetes, access to cars, smoking) had missing responses. For answers based on a more complex combination of responses (chronic bronchitis, asthma, angina, depression, means-tested benefits), where in order to have the condition, respondents needed to have responded positively to a number of questions, the assumption was that the remainder of the sample was negative for these conditions.
