In the above-mentioned article [Reference Hogea, Van Effelterre and Acosta1] the y axis in Figure 3a is incorrect. The correct version is given below.

Fig. 3. Baseline model projections: potential MRSA infection incidence increase and gradual replacement of MSSA over the next decade in the USA in the absence of systematic infection control, based on the 1999–2005 national trends (infection and colonization) and assuming strong competition between MRSA and MSSA for colonization of susceptible hosts [19]. (a) Projection of US population growth for period 2000–2020, based on historical US Census data.
