Immunization coverage in the Philippines reached only 60%, in contrast to the 85% target coverage of the country (DOH, 2018). The study aimed to assess the extent of adherence to infant immunization and determine the factors affecting adherence among parents of infants 6 to 12 months in a rural setting in the Philippines. Identified factors in the study are knowledge and beliefs of parents about immunization, age, sex, educational status, marital status, birth order, and place of child delivery. These were correlated with the practices of the parents in terms of timeliness and completeness of immunization.
