First seen May 19, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study in rural Chad and Niger tests whether giving a daily small packet of nutrient-rich food (SQ-LNS) to infants aged 6-11 months (until they turn 18 months) can encourage families to complete routine vaccinations. The goal is to break the deadly cycle of malnutrition and infectious disease. About 20,000 children will participate, with some receiving the supplement alongside standard vaccination programs and others receiving only standard care.
