Dear DHS forum,
I am using the under-five data (UGKR60FL.DTA) to compute the vaccination coverage of various children interventions.
These include measles, BCG, DPT,Polio. Also am interested in the proportion of children who used artemisinin, all other antimalarials,antibiotic for cough,
who were dewormed in the past 6 months, who have a health card, who took zinc supplements for diarrhoea, who took ORS or recommended home fluids for diarrhoea,
who received VitA supplents in the past 6 months, who received iron supplements in the past 7 days and the proportion of children who were delivered under skilled birth attendance.
My computations far deviate from those reported in the DHS report. Even though I have not adjusted for weights because I have never analyzed survey data but a difference of 30% is really unimaginable.

Please help me on how to go about this.

Thank you
Betty
