In the article entitled ‘Screening difficult-to-reach populations for tuberculosis using mobile medical units, Punjab, India’ by G Binepal, P Agarwal, N Kaur, B Singh, V Bhagat, R P Verma, S Satyanarayana, J E Oeltmann, P K Moonan (Public Health Action 2015; 5 (4): 241–245; http://dx.doi.org/10.5588/pha.15.0042), the second sentence of the Setting (p 241) erroneously reported the number of new sputum smear-positive patients diagnosed and treated in the state of Punjab in 2012. The corrected sentence should read as follows: ‘In 2012, 6479 new sputum smear-positive patients were diagnosed and 39 569 patients with TB were treated in the state of Punjab.’ [http://dx.doi.org/10.5588/pha.15.0042-e]
