Correction: Estimating the efficacy of community-wide use of systemic insecticides in dogs to control zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis: A modelling study in a Brazilian scenario

There is an error in Table 1. The value in line 3 read “Death rate of infected dogs” currently reads 0.003006/day and the reference reads [42]. The correct vales in line 3 "Death rate of infected dogs" should be 0.0018/day and the reference should be [38]. A copy of the correct table is below.
