Description

Definition
VACDPT3DAY (H7D) reports the day of the month that children received their third DPT vaccination. This information is only available for children born in the 3 to 5 years before the survey whose third DPT vaccination date was recorded on a card shown to the interviewer.

The complementary variables VACDPT3MO (H7M) and VACDPT3YR (H7Y) report the month and the year of the third 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 third DPT vaccination, including those identified through the mother's report rather than a dated vaccination card, see VACDPT3 (H7).
