Create data set on overall vaccination rates for children ages 12-23 months #37
Comments
@cliftonmcintosh I'll do it let me 1h more or less ! 😁 |
Done in the #39 PR.We have to help to the most neddy of many ways! |
Any idea why the percentages for overall vaccination rates don't add up in table 10.3? For example, Province 1 has the following:
Are those categories mutually exclusive and should add up to 100%? If not, are the first two cumulative? If so, then I would expect "No vaccinations" to be larger. Or is there a fourth category of "some vaccines but not enough to be "all basic"? I'm not sure how we interpret those numbers. Can you provide guidance? I've attached the relevant table in this comment. Nepal Demographic and Health Survey 2016 [FR336] Table 10.3.pdf |
It looks like there may be discrepancies in the data. Please hold off on this until we get guidance. Please consider doing another one of the issues instead. |
Re-opened issue. Provided more guidance in description. |
@cliftonmcintosh Yes I'll do but first I need that you explain better this parts of the description:
|
Thank you for your response. I think the data are slightly different from your interpretation. I have updated the description using Province 1 as an example. Please let me know if that helps explain the data and our goal. |
Can you verify whether or not my interpretation of how to read the percentages is correct? Please see my interpretation in the description. |
@cliftonmcintosh Update the in the overall_vaccination_twelve_to_twenty_three_months.csv file #37 in the commit: 5ff39f7

Fulfilled by #39 Thank you, @rafagarciac |
For the upcoming federal version of NepalMap, we would like to present data on overall vaccination rates for children ages 12-23 months. These data are available in Table 10.3 on page 212 of the Nepal Demographic and Health Survey of 2016 (PDF here). Extract the data from Table 10.3 so that it is in a csv that conforms to the following specifications:
-- "NONE" is for the column "No vaccinations" in Table 10.3
-- "BASIC" is for the column "All basic vaccinations" in Table 10.3
-- "ALL" is for the column "All age-appropriate vaccinations" in Table 10.3
-- "SOME" is for 100% minus the percent who have received basic vaccinations minus the percent who have received no vaccinations.
Since 0.8% have received none, the value for "NONE" is 169 * 0.008.
Since 43.1% have received "All age-appropriate vaccinations", the value for "ALL" is 169 * 0.431
The percent receiving "BASIC" is calculated by subtracting the percentage receiving "All age-appropriate vaccinations" from the percentage receiving "All basic vaccinations". So 169 * (0.794 - 0.431)
The percent receiving "SOME" is calculated by subtracting the percentage receiving none and the percentage receiving all basic from 100%. So 169 * (1 - 0.794 - 0.008).
