Why it matters

Whether a locally adapted, illustrated checklist increases families’ reported use of protective actions and early symptom recognition compared to standard verbal advice or existing flyers.

Baseline: families’ prior knowledge/actions assessed via a short pre-distribution survey. Measured by follow-up phone or in-person survey. Duration
