Description

Definition
VACVITAEVER (H41B) indicates whether the child ever received a dose of vitamin A. Information is drawn from the mother's response to a direct question about whether the child ever received a dose of vitamin A, rather than from the immunization card or from other questions about specific vitamin A doses and timing.
