I am looking at DPT coverage using Births Recode of DHS Zambia 2007.
The final report says very high coverage. For example, 92.3% of children aged 12 and 23 months received the first dose of DPT (Table 10.2).
But when I tabulate variable "h3" (DPT1), about 73.93% of children aged 12 and 23 months did not receive DPT1.
I attached the table and my commands. I did not use weights.
Are there errors in the data or am I doing something wrong?
use zmbr51fl.dta,clear
gen hypage=(v008-b3)/12
keep if hypage>=1 & hypage<2
tab h3
received dpt 1 | Freq. Percent Cum.
