Question pretext
If a vaccination card/record is available for the child, copy the dates for each immunization recorded on the card in the Date/Status column in questions 3.3-3.8.
If the card shows that the vaccine was given but there is no date or the date is not legible, write 44 in the first two cells of the corresponding Date/Status column in questions 3.3-3.8.
If the specific vaccine or dose is not recorded on the card/record or the respondent does not have a vaccination card/record, ask the respondent the corresponding question (3.3-3.8) for each vaccine. If the Respondent says the child received the vaccine, write 66 in the corresponding first two cells of the Date/Status column.
If the vaccine/dose that should have been given by the date of interview was not given, write 77 in the corresponding first two cells of the Date/Status column, and Ask: What was the main Reason why (name of Vaccine/Dose) was not given to the Child? (Record the reason and the code2 for the reason in the space provided.
If the respondent Does not Know whether the vaccine was given or not, record 98 in the first two cells of the Date/Status column for each vaccine. If the child for whom this form is being filled is around and the respondent does not know whether BCG was given or not, you should ask for permission to perform a physical check to determine whether the vaccine was indeed given or not.
If the child has not yet reached the age to receive a specific vaccine/dose, record 99=Not Applicable in the first two cells of the Date/Status column for the vaccine/dose.
