Description

Definition
VACBCGYR_NP reports the year that children received the BCG vaccination according to Vikram Samvat, the official calendar in Nepal. This information is only available for children born in the 3 to 5 years before the survey, whose BCG vaccination date was recorded on a card shown to the interviewer. VACBCGYR_NP is only available for the Nepali samples.

The complementary variables VACBCGDAY_NP and VACBCGMO_NP report the day of the month and the month of the BCG vaccination according to Vikram Samvat, 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 BCG vaccination, including those identified through the mother's report rather than a dated vaccination card, see VACBCG (H2).
