A recent study outlined diarrhoea, a child’s diet, number of children in a household, livelihood and lack of caregiver education as some of the factors that affect the prevalence of wasting among children aged under 5 years, especially in arid areas.
Wasting is a critical global health issue characterized by a child having low weight for height. This condition disproportionately impacts children in this age group.
