In all surveys, children from mothers with higher education, who were delivered in hospitals, lived in urban areas, and whose mothers work outside the home had significantly higher proportions of completed basic vaccination. A lower level of childhood vaccination is observed in the northern parts, while higher rates are observed in the southern parts. More complete vaccination coverage was reported in the 1990 survey, followed by 2008, 1999 and 2003. In addition, children from mothers with higher levels of education, who were delivered in hospitals, who lived in urban areas, and whose mothers work outside the home had significantly higher proportions of completed basic vaccination.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Much more work needs to be done if more children are to be covered and thus reduce vaccine\u2010preventable diseases.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/cch.12055","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,10]],"date-time":"2013-04-10T04:47:11Z","timestamp":1365569231000},"page":"267-274","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["Trends and patterns of under\u20105 vaccination in <scp>N<\/scp>igeria, 1990\u20132008: what manner of progress?"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"40","author":[{"given":"B.
