Hello,
I am doing some analysis looking at immunisation coverage equity, and before looking at coverage in population sub-groups I am trying to reproduce the immunisation coverage estimates reported in the Kenya 2014 DHS. I have two main questions:
1. The KR ad BR data files contain the variables spn1 spn2 spn3 srv1 srv2 and syf for pneumococcal, rotavirus and yellow fever vaccines, and these questions are included in the questionnaires. Data for pneumococcal vaccination coverage is included in DHS tables (e.g Table 10.3), but the datasets I downloaded have no data in them, all values are missing. Does anyone know why these data are not included in the download datasets?
2. I have managed to reproduce coverage estimates for BCG, DPT and measles, using the code below, but the estimates for polio are a little bit out. There is a footnote to Table 10.3 that mentions adjusting for "a likely misinterpretation of polio 0 and polio 1; for children whose mothers reported that they received three doses of DPT-HepB-Hib and polio 0, polio 1, and polio 2, it was assumed that polio 0 was in fact polio 1, polio 1 was polio 2 and polio 2 was polio 3." Does anyone know how this was done? I haven't been able to reproduce the figures in the table for children aged 12-23 months.
Thanks,
Sonia
