Description

For sample children under 6 years old who have an immunization record and who have at least one DTP vaccine on their record, IMRDTPDA1 reports the day when the person received his/her first DTP vaccine. DTP shots are sometimes called diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis shots, baby shots, or three-in-one-shots.

Users should combine IMRDTPDA1 with IMRDTPMO1 and IMRDTPY1, which report the month and year when the person received his/her first DTP vaccine.

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