Description

Definition
VACVITALASTDAY (H33D) reports the day of the month that children received their most recent, or most recent reported, vitamin A vaccination. This information is only available for children born in the 3 to 5 years before the survey whose most recent vitamin A vaccination date was recorded on a card shown to the interviewer.

The complementary variables VACVITALASTMO (H33M) and VACVITALASTYR (H33Y) report the month and the year of the most recent vitamin A 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 most recent vitamin A vaccination, including those identified through the mother's report rather than a dated vaccination card, see VACVITALAST (H33).
