Some errors went uncorrected in the table of this article by Paul Farmer and colleagues (BMJ 2013;346:f65, doi:10.1136/bmj.f65). The figures for malaria were incorrect, the subheadings wrongly appeared at the top of the table, and the source references should have been 2, 33, 34, 35, and 36. The correct table is here. In addition, the affiliation for Soline Dusabeyesu Mugeni should be the Clinton Health Access Initiative [not Partners in Health].
