Description

Definition
VACDPT2MO (H5M) reports the month that children received their second DPT vaccination. This information is only available for children born in the 3 to 5 years before the survey whose second DPT vaccination date was recorded on a card shown to the interviewer.

The complementary variables VACDPT2DAY (H5D) and VACDPT2YR (H5Y) report the day of the month and the year of the second 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 the second DPT vaccination, including those identified through the mother's report rather than a dated vaccination card, see VACDPT2 (H5).
