For the sake of these youngest and most vulnerable children, we ask all adults to help make sure their families can get them to the distribution point in their ward office and back safely and without fear.
Organizers of any demonstration or public gathering have a responsibility to ensure that children are out of harm's way, particularly children without family, such as street children who have no-one to look after them and are even more vulnerable.
This distribution, which saves some 12,000 lives a year, is the largest exercise in child survival in Nepal.
Children who don't receive the Vitamin A capsules have a four-times-higher risk of dying than those who do receive it.
