Data for 1998

Immunisation Coverage, DTP3, 1998

1998, as WUENIC’s 2025 release gives it · stored as published, never rewritten

This is the share of infants who have received the third dose of the diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine. Three doses need three contacts with a health service in a child's first year, which is why it is the standard measure of whether routine health care reaches every child.

Immunisation Coverage, DTP3, 1998 covers 190 countries. 23 countries share the highest reading, 99; Burkina Faso is lowest, at 15. The middle country reads 89. Against 1997, 144 values changed (85 up, 59 down), the same countries are covered.

How values are stored

  • One year of the 2025 release

    Every year in this series comes from WUENIC’s 2025 release, recalculated on one method, so a change from one year to the next is not a revision. It can differ from what was first published for 1998.

  • 56 distinct values among 190

    Values are stored exactly as published. 23 countries share 99. Countries sharing a value share a position too.

  • Nothing missing

    Every one of the 190 countries has every column.
