SECONDARY, WORM INFECTION
In terms of secondary sanitation‐related outcomes, the project had no impact on whether households had access to an improved latrine (0.1 pp; 95% CI: −4.1 to 4.2 pp) nor on self‐reported open defecation by household members in the previous week (0.3 pp; 95% CI: −4.1 to 4.6 pp) (Table At endline, about 7% of 0–5‐month‐olds in the treatment group had experienced diarrhoea in the previous 2 weeks; this was lower than in the control group but not a statistically significant difference (−3.5 pp; 95% CI: −7.9 to 0.8 pp). The overall incidence of diarrhoea was higher for the full sample of 0–35‐month‐olds, but the impact was also not statistically significant (0.4 pp; 95% CI: −1.8 to 2.5 pp). Nor was there evidence of a significant impact on the incidence of worm infections in the previous 12 months, as reported by caregivers of 6–35‐month‐olds (1.1 pp; 95% CI: −0.6 to 3.0 pp).
