Childhood full immunized status (89.5%) and immunization coverages (>90%) are high while dropout rate is lower than the recommended cutoff point by WHO. However, immunization data quality remains inadequate. Thus, health education and orientation of service providers is urgently needed. In addition, immunization registers and data quality are issues that require attention.
