Description

Definition
VACVITAMOSINCE reports the number of months since the child's most recent dose of vitamin A. Information is drawn from the mother's response to a direct question about the number of months since the child's most recent dose of vitamin A, rather than from the immunization card or from other questions about specific vitamin A doses and timing.
