Interviewer instructions

This question is asked only when the child’s vaccination card was seen by the interviewer. Sometimes a child will receive a vaccination but no record of it is made on the health card. If the respondent reports that the child did receive additional vaccinations (6509), the interviewer should probe for additional doses of DTP. If the respondent is not sure what is this vaccine, specify that this is an injection given in the thigh or buttocks.
