Description

Definition
For children born in the three to five years before the survey, ANTETNUSNO (M1) indicates whether, and how many, tetanus (toxicoid) injections were given to the mother while the child was in utero, to avoid convulsions after birth.

For a similar variable that only reports whether a tetanus injection was received, see ANTETNUS.
