We are all so weary after so much pandemic life. And I think the @MaskNorm & @poverty_action teams might need a bit of a break. But what drives me is 1) collaborations w good ppl and 2) hope that all the effort might truly matter to even a handful of families

This line sums up the importance of studies like the Bangladesh @MaskNorm study.

"In the absence of systematic research on the costs and benefits of mask requirements for kids, the issue has been transformed into a right-left political battle."

Fantastic work from the team!

[Jason Abaluck @Jabaluck]

With dozens of researchers at Yale, Stanford, Berkeley and IPA and several other organizations, we ran a cluster randomized trial involving almost 350,000 people and 600 villages in Bangladesh to assess the impact of community masking on COVID.

Mask distribution through @MaskNorm starts in #Nepal. The colorful cloth bags are a staple for deliveries and have a very local touch, along with the use of mascots. Also happy that our volunteers are staying safe with #masks & gloves.

What does #mask distribution look like in a place like #Nepal? Volunteers go door to door (or shop to shop), tell people about the project, and post stickers outside the places they have visited. @MaskNorm
