[SOLVED] Vaccinations both Dewasa & Remaja - Cumulative incorrect

Any pro can briefly explain why this can happened (discrepancy)?

The discrepancy in vaccination numbers are expected, initially it used to have data revision weekly as shown in the READ.ME here under methodological choices: https://github.com/CITF-Malaysia/citf-public/blob/main/vaccination/README.md

On 18th of October around midnight, CITF-Malaysia has made another major data revision for data since 2021-06-01 as shown below in their commit history https://github.com/CITF-Malaysia/citf-public/commit/156904bdcb346d3d13b4673e2f6dc6451b2557a8#diff-61b43ea1f6043e3ce51f4264320ef8907ad059425fc3bcf7cc9f4c20fac3b025

why this -158,349 did not make it "visible" , like put a remark , so that people can understand?

The only way to know is to check the commit history to see the changes in the file. Usually most infographics are posted using the available current data. If there's any major data revision, usually they would not inform the public but rather is just directly updated on the next day infographics

COVIDNOW is probably for public consumption, so most would just want to see the numbers although i agree that it should a note that a data revision has been made

Obtaining Total Administered Vaccine Doses

To obtain the Total Vaccine Doses, there is actually a minor additional calculation to be done

The "Keseluruhan - Sekurang-kurangnya Satu Dos" includes the first dose of a two-dose vaccine and also the single-dose vaccine like Cansino

The "Keseluruhan - Lengkap Divaksinasi" are those who are given the 2nd dose of a two-dose vaccine and also includes those who obtain the single-dose vaccine like Cansino

The "Keseluruhan - Penggalak" are those who obtain a booster dose (The 3rd dose)

Notice that "Keseluruhan - Sekurang-kurangnya Satu Dos" and "Keseluruhan - Lengkap Divaksinasi" contains the calculation of Cansino twice

So the final formula would be "Keseluruhan - Sekurang-kurangnya Satu Dos" + "Keseluruhan - Lengkap Divaksinasi" + "Keseluruhan - Penggalak" - "Total Cumulative Cansino Doses"

Example using the data as of 20th October 2021:

Total - At Least 1 Dose 25,285,399

Total – Fully Vaccinated 23,265,448

Total – Boosters 47,728

Total - Cansino Doses 160967

Total – Administered 25,285,399 + 23,265,448 + 47,728 - 160967 = 48,437,608 (Shown)

Actually what you have shown is that 158349 Cansino vaccine were given as of 17 October 2021 (Assuming no data revision is made in the future but there are pending data of 12976 doses as of 20th October 2021)

Hi KennethThePro,

I already got the answer 2 days ago , just exactly same as what you presented above, its just that I forgot to update at here and close this issue.

But my presentation of calculations is little bit different to yours. Mine is look abit complicated which is : Grand Total Administered vs Grand Total of the 3 = CanSino vaccine being administered. Anyhow, at the end the answer both of us is same. I mean, mine is same as yours.

Anyway, glad and thanks that for all your replies and inputs. Very much appreciated.
