Definition
VACVITD2MO reports the month that children received their second vitamin D2 vaccination. This information is only available for children born in the 3 to 5 years before the survey whose second vitamin D2 vaccination date was recorded on a card shown to the interviewer.
The complementary variables VACVITD2DAY and VACVITD2YR report the day of the month and the year of the second vitamin D2 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 the second vitamin D2 vaccination, including those identified through the mother's report rather than a dated vaccination card, see VACVITD2.
