Description

Definition
VACDPT1YR_ET reports the year that children received their first DPT vaccination according to the Ethiopian calendar. This information is only available for children born in the 3 to 5 years before the survey whose first DPT vaccination date was recorded on a card shown to the interviewer. VACDPT1YR_ET is only available for the Ethiopian samples.

The complementary variables VACDPT1DAY_ET and VACDPT1MO_ET report the day of the month and the month of the first DPT vaccination, as recorded on a vaccination card shown to the interviewer.

According to the DHS Recode Manuals, the vaccination date may be coded as "Inconsistent" if the reported date is inconsistent with the date of birth, the date of interview, or the dates of other vaccinations.

To identify all young children who received their first DPT vaccination, including those identified through the mother's report rather than a dated vaccination card, see VACDPT1 (H3).
