Data are weighted to represent the non-institutionalized United States population and mitigate possible bias that can result from incomplete sample frame (exclusion of households with no phone service or only landline telephones) or non-response. All responses are self-reported, or reported by a parent for children 6 months-17 years. For more information about the surveys, see https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/imz-managers/nis/about.html#current-surveys. Estimates should be interpreted with caution when there is a small sample size or wide confidence interval.
