Erratum to: Maternally-derived antibodies do not prevent transmission of swine influenza A virus between pigs

Erratum to: Vet Res (2016) 47:86 DOI 10.1186/s13567-016-0365-6

After publication of the original article [1], the authors noticed an error in Table 2 in the “Results” section. In the last column the R₀ estimated values have been reversed between groups. Consistently with the text, R₀ is 5.8 [1.4–18.9] for MDA⁺ piglets (first row) and 14.8 [6.4–27.1] for MDA⁻ piglets (second row). The corrected version of Table 2 is included in this erratum.

Estimation of the reproduction numbers R ₀ for MDA ⁺ and MDA ⁻ piglets using the best model (model 2)

	Shedding period (days)	Direct transmission rate β (days−1)	Susceptibility factor σ	R0
MDA+ piglets			0.39 [0.21–0.70]	5.8 [1.4–18.9]
	6.1 [5.9 – 6.4]a	2.43 [1.09 – 4.23]a
MDA− piglets			–	14.8 [6.4–27.1]
