Description

For sample children who are under 6 years old, IMHEPBTOT reports the total number of Hepatitis B vaccines that the person has ever received.

Users are strongly encouraged to visit the Universe tab for more information on changes in the universe across surveyed years.

Comparability

Changes in the universe between samples limit the comparability of this variable. From 1994 to 1996, sample children under 6 years old and all children aged 19-35 months who were not selected as sample children were asked of this question. In 1991-1993, only sample children under 6 years old were included.

Users can exclude all children aged 19-35 months in 1994 to 1996 who were not selected as sample children, using IMMSAMP
