Summary

All households in three zones in Zambia's Eastern Province were invited to attend a community point distribution of insecticide treated bed nets (ITNs). Households were then randomized to different intervals for a community health worker (CHW) hang-up visit.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Community point distribution

Households were invited to a central location in their community (i.e. school, church, etc) where they received their allotment of ITNs (one per sleeping space, as pre-registered ahead of study activities). Households were provided with malaria prevention messaging at the distribution. They were called up one-by-one in front of other members of the community to mitigate misrepresentation of households.

OTHER

Community health worker hang-up visit

CHWs visited households to take stock of how many ITNs that were distributed during the distribution were hung and to hang any unhung ITNs.
