Dear Assistant,

I am writing to seek guidance and clarification for a research project I am conducting on vaccination coverage in children in select countries of Sub-Saharan Africa. My name is Sancho Xavier, and I am a student and researcher in the field of Epidemiology.

The primary objective of my research is to determine the prevalence and determinants of complete vaccination coverage in children under 32 months, using a dichotomous variable indicating whether the child had complete vaccination coverage or not. I plan to conduct this analysis in selected countries of Sub-Saharan Africa.

I would like to request guidance on where I can find this variable of interest, along with other relevant explanatory variables for my analysis. Additionally, I would like to inquire whether it is appropriate to use the BR database for this purpose, or if there are other databases more suitable for my research.

Thank you in advance for your attention and assistance.

Best regards,

Sancho Xavier
