According to the vaccination cards, results showed that 59.9% of the children were fully vaccinated, while according to the mothers’ declarations the rate was 74.1%. The study found no difference associated with parents’ knowledge about the expanded immunization diseases, distance from the health centre, or socio-economic status.
