Summary:

Health experts have long known that a lack of Vitamin A can lead to serious complications and diseases during childhood--such as measles and blindness--as well as increasing the risk of child and maternal mortality, thus undermining the health and development of poor countries. The problem facing health workers and government ministries, therefore, has been how to deliver supplemental Vitamin A to populations most at risk, and how to help those populations understand the vital role it can play in protecting health.
