Summary

This study tests whether sending text messages or voice call reminders with helpful behavior change tips can improve how many babies get their full set of vaccines on time. About 7,800 caregivers of newborns in Bangladesh will be split into three groups: one gets no reminders, one gets voice calls, and one gets SMS texts. The goal is to see if these simple phone-based nudges can increase vaccination coverage and timeliness, potentially preventing thousands of preventable deaths.
