Abstract
Every year, thousands of children worldwide remain unimmunized or partially immunized, especially in developing countries. It therefore appears important to examine soda-demographic factors associated with incomplete immunization of children in West Africa. The present cross-sectional study examined factors associated with incomplete immunization of children aged 12 to 59 months in Cote d'lvoire, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Mali, Guinea, and Liberia, based on Demographic and Health Surveys data. The findings of the study showed that birth at home, absence of access of mothers to media, no religion, poverty, and illiteracy were associated with incomplete immunization of children. Health officials should take these immunization status predictors into account when making policies and immunization strategies in countries included in this study in order to achieve immunization coverage targets.
