•Co-morbidities, for example chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes, are not excluded from the study (unless their GP considers them unsuitable). In addition, we would not exclude entry to the trial of more than one participant per household, however, should this occur, they would be assigned to the same treatment group (to minimise the potential for contamination).
