January 2001: There is no data for 1996 as the vaccination program was changed. DTP/tetanus is now given at 12 months. The Serum Institute calculated the percent as the vaccinations given with the share of children 15 months (before 1996) and 12 months after 1995. In 1996 all children between 12-14 months and vaccinated were just divided by share of 12-months children which given a percent larger than 100 so no data available for that year.
