Results from a mixed-methods study in two states in Nigeria to assess the adherence to COVID-19 infection prevention and control measures during delivery of SMC

Varying degrees of adherence to the infection control prevention (IPC) guidelines among community distributors (CDs) was observed across both Kano and Sokoto state. It was also found that adherence to IPC practices that require frequent and timed application are generally low. Adequate knowledge and positive perceptions of the IPC measures among CDs and the feasibility of implementation are facilitators to adherence. 

This presentation was given at the 70th annual meeting of the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.
