  • Notes. Two-level logistic regression with LGA random effect. Sample includes children up to 60 months of age (or aged 60 months at time of death) born between October 2000 and December 2017. Dependent variables as indicated in column ‘model,’ corresponding to aggregate results presented above. Main results only, omitting child, parental and household determinants of immunisation, survey round dummy, constant and multilevel variance parameter. Coefficients reported, 95% CIs in brackets.
