`doseQuantity`

The quantity of vaccine product that was administered.

By preference, use UCUM units of measure. Examples of when a UCUM unit of measure would be used are “gram” or “milliliter” or “percent”.

Where a UCUM unit of measure is not defined, use a SNOMED CT unit of measure. Examples of when a SNOMED CT unit of measure would typically be used are “tablet”, “capsule” or “ampule”.

Example of `Immunization.doseQuantity` usage:
