+## Reading all MSD files for certain indicators
+
+In order to bypass GENIE and directly access all msd data for a given indicator, you can use the code below to read the parquet files for msd:
+
+```{r, echo=TRUE, eval = FALSE}
+
+# READ ALL MSD SITE_RECENT FROM S3 AS PARQUET AND COMBINE
+ 
+# install new release of pdaprules, make sure you also have arrow installed
+# devtools::install_github(repo = "https://github.com/pepfar-datim/pdaprules.git", ref = "main")
+# install.packages("arrow")
