| Definition |
Proportion of the target population covered by all vaccines included in their national programme |
| Theoretical formula |
\[PPV_{\text{vaccine}}^{t} = \frac{PV_{\text{vaccine}}^{\text{cohort}\, t - c}}{P^{\text{cohort}\, t - c}} \cdot 100\]
where: $PV_{\text{vaccine}}^{\text{cohort}\, t - c}=$ population vaccinated with the specified type of vaccine, belonging to the cohort born in $t-c$ $P^{\text{cohort}\, t - c}=$ total population of the cohort born in $t-c$ ${c}=$ interval of years that defines the specific cohort for each vaccine (c=1 or cohort born at t-1 for DPTa and VNC, c=5 for SRP and c=13 for VPH) |
| Available disaggregations |
Vaccine type |
| Frequency |
Annual |
| Observations |
The results are obtained using the definitions proposed by the Vaccination Registry and Program Report and agreed by the Public Health Commission in October 2017. Since then, vaccination coverage has been calculated by population birth cohorts. Vaccines purchased in pharmacies or administered by the private health sector are not included. |
