On track
Coverage in 2008 was less than 5 per cent below the rate it needed to be for the country to reach the MDG target or coverage was higher than 95%
Progress but insufficient Coverage in 2008 was 5 per cent to 10 per cent below the rate it needed to be for the country to reach the MDG target
Not on track Coverage in 2008 was more than 10 per cent below the rate it needed to be for the country to reach the MDG target, or the 1990 – 2008 trend shows a decreasing coverage
No or insufficient data Data were unavailable or insufficient to estimate trends
