After adjusting for confounding factors, the results showed that occupation (AOR=2.18, 95%CI=1.27-3.76), perception (AOR=2.37, 95%CI=1.01-5.56), place of vaccination (AOR=2.63, 95%CI=1.53-4.51) and the person sent for vaccination (AOR=2.40, 95%CI =1.33-4.35) were significantly (P-value < 0.05) associated with incomplete immunization and the strongest predictor was volunteer help (AOR=3.15, 95%CI =1.47-6.76).
