Immunization Coverage [message #22126]

Hi,

I am using the 2018 Nigerian Demographic Survey to assess immunization coverage among children age 12-23 months. However, the base (living children age 12-23 months) that I obtained from the dataset (5,992) was at variance with the value (6,143) in the final report (Page 237). Based on the guidance from the Standard Recode Manual for DHS7 (Page 79), I used the following syntax to get the number of living children age 12-23 months.

COMPUTE Age12_23= (RANGE (B19$01, 12,23) and B5$01 =1) OR (RANGE(B19$02, 12,23) and B5$02 =1) OR (RANGE(B19$03, 12,23) and B5$03 =1).
EXECUTE.

I wouldn't know what I am doing wrong. I will appreciate your kind assistance.

Thank you.
