Notes: OLS coefficient estimates for each subsample-dependent variable group come from a separate regression. Robust standard errors in parentheses clustered at the VC level.

Wild bootstrap p-values are for the joint effect test of DD and DD*subsample (H0=0). Individual controls: age, age squared, male, baseline morbidity past 2 weeks, and baseline orphan status/Household controls (all defined at baseline): household head (female, age, ever attended school, chronic illness, married), log per capita expenditure, household size, total age group categories (0–5, 6–11, 12–17, 65+) and dummies for Traditional Authority residence.
