The need for innovative strategies to improve immunisation services in rural Zimbabwe
Gokwe South, a rural district in Midlands Province, Zimbabwe, reported the lowest rate of immunisation coverage in the country in 2005: 55 per cent of children vaccinated with three doses of diphtheria/pertussis/tetanus vaccine (DPT3) and 35 per cent dropout between the first and third dose of DPT. In January 2007, the authors assessed local barriers to immunisation and proposed strategies to improve immunisation rates in the district, in the fac…
Impact of methodological "shortcuts" in conducting public health surveys: Results from a vaccination coverage survey
Strategies to reduce sources of survey error should be maximized in public health surveys.

Socioeconomic Factors and Persistent Racial Disparities in Childhood Vaccination
Timeliness of Childhood Immunizations: A State-Specific Analysis
Objective. We examined the timeliness of vaccine administration among children aged 24 to 35 months for each state of the United States and the District of Columbia. Methods. We analyzed the timeliness of vaccinations in the 2000–2002 National Immunization Survey. We used a modified Bonferroni adjustment to compare a reference state with all other states. Results. Receipt of all vaccinations as recommended ranged from 2% (Mississippi) to 26% (Mas…
