Correction: Estimating the Global Burden of Endemic Canine Rabies

There are a number of errors in Table 3. The table legend should read: Breakdown of economic costs of rabies by cluster in millions of USD. The headings for columns six, seven, and eight are incorrect. They should be in the following order: Dog vaccination, Dog population management, Livestock losses. Please see the correct Table 3 below. Table 3 Breakdown of economic costs of rabies by cluster in millions of USD.
