Declarations
:
: Before initiation, the study was reviewed and approved by the KEMRI Scientific and Ethics Review Committee (approval number NON-KEMRI 644) in Kenya, the Ethik Kommission of the Charité Berlin (reference number EA2/100/16) in Germany, as well as Uganda National Council of Science and Technology (Reference SS 4815], and the Vector Control Division-Research and Ethics Committee of the Ministry of Health (Reference VCDREC/101/UG-REC-018) in Uganda. Informed assent and consent were obtained from the children and their caregivers. All assessments and interviews were conducted in empty classrooms. Participants with serious health concerns were to be excluded from the field study and referred to appropriate healthcare services according to country guidelines. In the event of such an exclusion, they would be invited to participate at a later date. Fortunately, no participants presented with serious health concerns during data collection.
