Interviewer instructions
This module is used to obtain the percentage of children under five who have received
BCG, DPT3, OPV3, measles and other immunization before age 1.
If the respondent reports that there is a vaccination card for the child, ask to see it. You
should have obtained vaccination cards at the beginning of the interview. If you did not
already obtain the card for the child, now is the time to ask for it again.
In some cases, the respondent may not be willing to take time to look for the vaccination
card, thinking that you are in a hurry. Encourage the respondent to look for the vaccination
card for the child. It is critical to obtain written documentation of the child's immunization
history; therefore, be patient if the respondent needs to search for the card.
If the respondent does not have a vaccination card but the vaccine doses are registered in
another document (for example, a booklet with records of clinic visits), ask to see it. If the
card or other document is seen, circle '1' and continue to the next question. If the card or
other document is not seen, circle '2' and skip to IM7 - you will be asking the respondent
to recall the child's vaccinations. If the respondent does not have a vaccination card or any
other document where the vaccine doses are registered for the child, circle '9' and skip to
IM7.
