Hello,

I am analyzing the uptake of the second dose of the measles and rubella vaccine in Kenya based on the 2022 survey. How do I differentiate between the first and second doses of the measles vaccine in the ZZIR622FL data set from Kenya?
The variable H9A is not available in the data set.

Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
In the KR file for this survey, h9 and h9a are the variables for the first and second dose of measles vaccine, respectively. See the unweighted table of frequencies below. I found these variables by entering "lookfor measles".
