Description

Definition
VACDPTPEN3YR_AF reports the year that children received their third DPT/pentavalent vaccination, according to the Solar Hijri calendar. This information is only available for children born in the 5 years before the survey, whose third DPT/pentavalent vaccination date was recorded on a card shown to the interviewer. VACDPTPEN3YR_AF is only available for the Afghan samples.

The complementary variables VACDPTPEN3DAY_AF and VACDPTPEN3MO_AF report the day of the month and the month of the third DPT/pentavalent 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/pentavalent vaccination, including those identified through the mother's report rather than a dated vaccination card, see VACDPTPEN3.
