INFECTION
Infants were followed up through home visits by Field Research Assistants (FRA) twice weekly throughout the entire study period of 8 weeks (4 weeks supplementation + 4 weeks post-supplementation follow-up). Caregivers were asked to keep empty sachets after administration of supplements. FRAs collected the information on daily administration of supplements. Missing doses were not repeated. Infants developing an infection during the follow-up period were re-admitted to the hospital.
