Mass Oral Azithromycin for Childhood Mortality: Timing of Death After Distribution in the MORDOR Trial
- Publication Year :
- 2019
-
Abstract
- In a large community-randomized trial, biannual azithromycin distributions significantly reduced postneonatal childhood mortality in sub-Saharan African sites. Here, we present a prespecified secondary analysis showing that much of the protective effect was in the first 3 months postdistribution. Distributing more frequently than biannually could be considered if logistically feasible. Clinical Trials Registration. NCT02047981.
